restart simulation during minimization

Dear all,
I am running a big number of atoms that leads to terminating the run during the minimization process. My question is how to continue from the point I stopped in during minimization?

​you cannot restart unless you write out restart information regularly.
please see the documentation for details.

if you are writing out a dump of the progress of the minimization, you can
also try to recover the coordinates up to that point via read_dump
