Materials Simulations using Gaussian 09

INTRODUCTION

Gaussian Online Manual
http://www.gaussian.com/g_tech/g_ur/g09help.htm
Gaussian has been designed with the needs of the user in mind. All of the standard input is free-format and mnemonic. Reasonable defaults for input data have been provided, and the output is intended to be self-explanatory. Mechanisms are available for the sophisticated user to override defaults or interface their own code to the Gaussian system. The authors hope that their efforts will allow users to concentrate their energies on the application of the methods to chemical problems and to the development of new methods, rather than on the mechanics of performing the calculations.

Make running file
=> use vi editor
Submit the running file
=> llsubmit name.cmd
Confirm output file
=> vi name.log

Running in Home directory
Important keyword in linux
• vi name.file : editor
• llsubmit name.cmd : key word to submit the job(.cmd file)
• llq : key word to job status
• llcancel job ID : keyword to cancel the submitted job
• llstatus –X : keyword to show the computer node
(usable cpu number and memory)
