<div class="admonition warning">
<p class="first admonition-title">Warning</p>
<p class="last">The write-data command is not yet fully implemented in
two respects. First, most pair styles do not yet write their
coefficient information into the data file. This means you will need
to specify that information in your input script that reads the data
file, via the <A HREF = "pair_coeff.html">pair_coeff</A> command. Second, a few of
the <A HREF = "atom_style.html">atom styles</A> (body, ellipsoid, line, tri) that
store auxiliary "bonus" information about aspherical particles, do not
file, via the <a class="reference internal" href="pair_coeff.html"><em>pair_coeff</em></a> command. Second, a few of
the <a class="reference internal" href="atom_style.html"><em>atom styles</em></a> (body, ellipsoid, line, tri) that
store auxiliary &#8220;bonus&#8221; information about aspherical particles, do not
yet write the bonus info into the data file. Both these
functionalities will be added to the write_data command later.
</P>
<P>Because a data file is in text format, if you use a data file written
functionalities will be added to the write_data command later.</p>
</div>
<p>Because a data file is in text format, if you use a data file written
out by this command to restart a simulation, the initial state of the
new run will be slightly different than the final state of the old run
(when the file was written) which was represented internally by LAMMPS
in binary format. A new simulation which reads the data file will
thus typically diverge from a simulation that continued in the
original input script.
</P>
<P>If you want to do more exact restarts, using binary files, see the
<A HREF = "restart.html">restart</A>, <A HREF = "write_restart.html">write_restart</A>, and
<A HREF = "read_restart.html">read_restart</A> commands. You can also convert
original input script.</p>
<p>If you want to do more exact restarts, using binary files, see the
<a class="reference internal" href="restart.html"><em>restart</em></a>, <a class="reference internal" href="write_restart.html"><em>write_restart</em></a>, and
<a class="reference internal" href="read_restart.html"><em>read_restart</em></a> commands. You can also convert
binary restart files to text data files, after a simulation has run,
using the <A HREF = "Section_start.html#start_7">-r command-line switch</A>.
</P>
<P>IMPORTANT NOTE: Only limited information about a simulation is stored
using the <a class="reference internal" href="Section_start.html#start-7"><span>-r command-line switch</span></a>.</p>

<p>Bonds that are broken (e.g. by a bond-breaking potential) are not

<HR>
<P>The <I>nocoeff</I> keyword requests that no force field parameters should
data file is read.</p>
<hr class="docutils" />
<p>The <em>nocoeff</em> keyword requests that no force field parameters should
be written to the data file. This can be very helpful, if one wants
to make significant changes to the force field or if the parameters
are read in separately anyway, e.g. from an include file.
</P>
<P>The <I>pair</I> keyword lets you specify in what format the pair
are read in separately anyway, e.g. from an include file.</p>
<p>The <em>pair</em> keyword lets you specify in what format the pair
coefficient information is written into the data file. If the value
is specified as <I>ii</I>, then one line per atom type is written, to
is specified as <em>ii</em>, then one line per atom type is written, to
specify the coefficients for each of the I=J interactions. This means
that no cross-interactions for I != J will be specified in the data
file and the pair style will apply its mixing rule, as documented on
individual <A HREF = "pair_style.html">pair_style</A> doc pages. Of course this
individual <a class="reference internal" href="pair_style.html"><em>pair_style</em></a> doc pages. Of course this
behavior can be overridden in the input script after reading the data
file, by specifying additional <A HREF = "pair_coeff.html">pair_coeff</A> commands
for any desired I,J pairs.
</P>
<P>If the value is specified as <I>ij</I>, then one line of coefficients is
written for all I,J pairs where I <= J. These coefficients will
file, by specifying additional <a class="reference internal" href="pair_coeff.html"><em>pair_coeff</em></a> commands
for any desired I,J pairs.</p>
<p>If the value is specified as <em>ij</em>, then one line of coefficients is
written for all I,J pairs where I &lt;= J. These coefficients will
include any specific settings made in the input script up to that
point. The presence of these I != J coefficients in the data file
will effectively turn off the default mixing rule for the pair style.
Again, the coefficient values in the data file can can be overridden
in the input script after reading the data file, by specifying
additional <A HREF = "pair_coeff.html">pair_coeff</A> commands for any desired I,J
pairs.
