[molpro-user] Restart possible?

Dear all,
   I have been running a CCSD(T) calculation on a fairly large system,
and the code went through most but not all CCSD iterations until the
machine for some reason crashed and/or was rebooted. I have not
saved any permanent files by FILE commands or similar (as normally
required for a restart as far as I understand), but scratch files
still seem to be available (see below for a full list). My question
is whether it would be possible to restart the calculation, and, if so,
how? The detailed question would be: are all required files likely to
be present (according to the list below), how would they have to be
referenced in the input (note that almost all files are split into
2GB pieces or smaller, so file endings may matter for proper
referencing), and can or should certain ones be deleted?

I have been using the standard precompiled Molpro 2009 binary
molprop_2009_1_Linux_x86_64_i8.exe with 4 cores, and the input
looks like shown below.

Thanks a lot,
Dirk Bakowies
