Yes this is to continue a crashed run, but I dont know why my runs crash at the very beginnig of the simulation. I am using 4.5.4 so -append should work by default. I tried a simulation from time zero and it works as before ( mpirun -np 8 mdrun_mpi -deffnm md -s -o -c -g -e -x ) but as soon as I include the -cpi flag the it doesn work and I get:
NOTE: invoking MPI_ABORT causes Open MPI to kill all MPI processes. You may or may not see output from other processes, depending on exactly when Open MPI kills them. While as I said if I try to start from the very beginning it doesnt crash... Any ideas..
