empty dump and restart files

Hi all,

The issue I have run into is that after about 30 ps of the run, the generated dump and restart files are empty. However, the system seems to be stable, as the run is not terminated, no big energy fluctuations are observed and the specified data is properly recorded in the thermo file. I’m wondering what could be the cause of this problem.
I’d truly appreciate your response.
