I am having exactly the same problem recently. The replica exchange job stops around 11000 steps. Switch to another cluster and the job is running fine. I wonder how often you've seen this type of crashing and any solutions for this? Thanks.

It seems like you're able to run your job, so I don't think there's anything to do about it, except perhaps inquire with your sysadmins about the stability of the filesystem, and whether or not you can expect to have this happen frequently. -Justin > JH > -- ======================================== Justin A.
