+\subsubsection{Restart}
+
+\verb+DIRDYVTST+ calculations should be restarted through the normal NWChem
+mechanism (See Section \ref{sec:start}).  The user needs to change the
+\verb+start+ directive to a \verb+restart+ directive and get rid of any
+information that will overwrite important information in the RTDB.  The
+\verb+file.db+ and \verb+file.file30+ need to be available for the
+calculation to restart properly.
+
+\subsubsection{Example}
+
+This is an example that creates the file30 file for POLYRATE for $H + H_2$.
+Note that the multiplicity is that of the entire supermolecule, a doublet.
+In this example, the initial energies, gradients, and Hessians are calculated
+at the UHF$\backslash$3-21G level of theory and the singlepoint calculations are 
+calculated at the MP2$\backslash$cc-pVDZ level of theory with a tighter convergence
+threshold than the first SCF.
