This file is unformatted and written by the subroutine REVIVE. It contains the accumulated statistical data. It is updated whenever the file REVCON is updated (see previous section). REVIVE should be renamed REVOLD to continue a simulation from one job to the next. This is done by the copy macro supplied in the execute directory of DL_POLY_2 . In addition, to continue a simulation from a previous job the restart keyword must be included in the CONTROL file.
The format of the REVIVE file is identical to the REVOLD file described in section 4.1.4.
