Gaussian water frequency calculation for blacklight

# Make the module command available 
source /usr/share/modules/init/csh  
set echo    

# Load the gaussian module 
module load gaussian09   

# Copy the input files to the scratch directory. 
# The scratch directory offers large capacity and high performance, 
# HOWEVER:  it is not permanent storage and may be removed automatically  
# when the job ends.  
# Here the input and checkpoint files are in a subdirectory of the home dir 
# The subdirectory is named 'gaussian' 
cp $HOME/gaussian/water_freq $SCRATCH 
cp $HOME/gaussian/water.chk      $SCRATCH  

# Move to the scratch directory to run the job.  
cd $SCRATCH  

# Define OMP_NUM_THREADS 
setenv OMP_NUM_THREADS 16  

# Use $SCRATCH_RAMDISK for intermediate files
setenv GAUS_SCRDIR $SCRATCH_RAMDISK

# Execute Gaussian 09, writing the output to the scratch directory. 
# Use omplace to run the job 
omplace -nt $OMP_NUM_THREADS g09 < water_freq >& water_freq.log    
# ********   IMPORTANT **************** 
# Remember to move the  checkpoint file to the file archiver 
# (so that it can be reused) when the job completes. 
#  Here it is called  'water.chk' 
#
# You will also want to copy the log file to a permanent directory 
# Here we copy it back to a subdirectory of the home directory.
