Hi Rebeca,

Lines 69/70 of 3.3 include/types/simple.h reads

/* Max number of nodes  */
#define MAXNODES        256     

This obviously needs to be set to a higher value.
There is also a MAXNODES parameter in CVS src/gmxlib/tpxio.c,
which I guess also needs to be set to the same value if
you want to use 3.3 grompp together with CVS mdrun.

Good luck!

Carsten

Hello,

I want to simulate a membrane+proteína system (more than 700.000 atoms) with Gromacs 4 and I would like to use 512 proc.

I am creating the mdp file with Gromacs 3, since I have read in the wiki that it was a good way to include the number or processors ins the mdp file for the new version.

For grompp with Gromacs 3.3 I amincluding this options in the input mdp file:

fourierspacing           = 0.12

fourier_nx               = 1024

fourier_ny               = 1024

fourier_nz               = 0

but when I execute:

grompp -f equilibrado2.mdp -c equilibrado.gro -p para_equilibrado.top -o equilibrado2.tpr -n index.ndx -np 512

I receive this error:

-------------------------------------------------------

Program grompp, VERSION 3.3.3

Source code file: grompp.c, line: 1021

Fatal error:

invalid number of nodes 512

-------------------------------------------------------

When I had tried the same with 256 proc, using fourier_nx= fourier_ny=512, the correspondent error did not appear.

Is there a limit of processors in Gromacs for grompp or which could be the problem?

Thank you very much for your help in advance,
