@paschk31 The warning is coming from ADIOS/openPMD. What plugins have you activated (openPMD, adios, xrayScattering, etc.)? It does not now, how many "data-sinks" it should use.
I think I remember a conversation with our local admins, saying that we do not actually have OSTs on Hemera but something similar. So I suppose the error comes from our code not being able to use the right "words" to request the OST-like structures.
Did you get any more errors (as in #2861)?

i use these plugins:
TBG_plugins="!TBG_e_histogram !TBG_H_histogram \
!TBG_e_PSypy !TBG_H_PSypy \
!TBG_sumEnergy !TBG_chargeConservation \
!TBG_openPMD"

no just the one above, 30 times
Not sure, maybe @franzpoeschel has any idea?
ADIOS1 groups are parameterized by a num_ost
parameter (among others) (see p. 63 in the ADIOS user manual) that specifies "the number of Lustre storage targets available in the file system". The openPMD API sets this parameter as 0
by default, hence ADIOS warns that there are no OSTs to use. Look here on how to set the parameter explicitly.
EDIT: Missed a chance to promote ADIOS2 – you may want to checkout the ADIOS2 backend of the openPMD API. This issue will not occur there ;)
@paschk31do you consider this issue still unsolved? If not please close it ;)
after running a simulation, stderr gives me:
WARN : MPI_AMR method: No OST to use. Set num_ost=NNN in the adios config xml file.
sim ran nevertheless, occured while being on branch (@pordyna): https://github.com/pordyna/picongpu/tree/topic-collisions
I'm not sure where the warning is coming from and how to prevent it/what will happen if i just ignore it
(already disussed with @n01r and @psychocoderHPC )
