Hello I want to run a simulation in gromacs/4.0.7 because this version supports v-rescale option for thermostat and I need that. tcoupl=v-rescale in this version the grompp command does not need -np option. please let me know how I can specify the number of processors for my job. I use a .ll file to submit my job. in this file the command line is: mpiexec mdrun_mpi -v -s topol.tpr -np 8 (this is a coomand line which I used previously in my .ii file for gromacs/3.3 is this command line suitable for version 4/0/7 as well or I should change something? Thanks in advance D.Aghaie

Try using the Berendsen barostat. P-R allows for wider oscillations that can lead to instability in incompletely equilibrated systems. -Justin -- ======================================== Justin A.
