I am using 24 processors and it is same for all steps. this is the command in use:
---------------- tpbconv_mpi -f run.trr -s run.tpr -e run.edr -extend 1000 -o ext_11 nohup /opt/ScaleMP/mpich2/1.0.8/bin/mpirun -machinefile $PBS_NODEFILE -np 24 /opt/gromacs4/bin/mdrun_mpi -v -deffnm ext_11 -------------------------------------------------------------- similar for next steps. regards anupam > On 18/08/11, Anupam Nath Jha <anu...@mbu.iisc.ernet.in> wrote: > >> >> >> Dear all >> >> I am running a MD (Gromacs - 4.5.3) in VSMP cluster with 24nodes. >> >> I am writing log files for different ns (1-10) in different files i.e. >> different >> files for each nano second .
