Hi Pavel,

thank you for your prompt answer. You understood me correctly:

> constraint #1: occupancy(AGLU A 30) + occupancy(BGLU A 30)=1
> constraint #2: occupancy(AGLU A 30) = occupancy(AALA A 451)

is exactly what I want. Nevertheless, this can be done in SHELXL, but I
hoped it could be done in phenix.refine too.

Best regards,
Dalibor
