Dear users and developers of gromacs, following the installation of gromacs 4.0.3 the tests show some inconsistencies. The software was compiled with Intel 11.0.069 compiler using mvapich2 Further options in configure were: --enable-fortran --enable-mpi --with-fft=mkl --enable-shared The system gromacs is intended to run on uses mpiexec to initiate message passing. So gmxtest.pl was modified at line 31 to:
$mdprefix = "mpiexec -np $parallel" The output in mdrun.out starts with -- NNODES=4, MYRANK=2, HOSTNAME=h01001 NNODES=4, MYRANK=0, HOSTNAME=h01001 NODEID=0 argc=1 NNODES=4, MYRANK=1, HOSTNAME=h01001 NODEID=1 argc=1 NNODES=4, MYRANK=3, HOSTNAME=h01001 NODEID=3 argc=1 NODEID=2 argc=1 :-) G R O M A C S (-: ...it seems to be a parallel run indeed. Nontheless grompp.out of the corresponding run contains the lines: ------------------------------------------------------- Program grompp, VERSION 4.0.3 Source code file: statutil.c, line: 727 Invalid command line argument: -np ------------------------------------------------------- which is related to line 159 of gmxtest.pl. Are there any comments to the usage and position of the -np argument under these circumstances in order to have more than an educated guess for that?
