Indeed, it works just fine when I compile with mpi. I never thought to check that. My usual procedure is to compile the whole package without mpi and then to compile mdrun with mpi. Thanks for the help Mark.
Here is the compilation script that worked for me. module purge module load vacpp/12.1 xlf/14.1 mpich2/xl module load cmake/2.8.8 module load fftw/3.3.2 export FFTW_LOCATION=/scinet/bgq/Libraries/fftw-3.3.2 cmake ../source/ \ -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=BlueGeneQ-static-XL-C \ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$FFTW_LOCATION \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$(pwd) \ -DGMX_X11=OFF \ -DGMX_MPI=ON \ -DGMX_PREFER_STATIC_LIBS=ON make -j 16 make install -- gmx-users mailing list gmx-users@gromacs.org http://lists.gromacs.org/mailman/listinfo/gmx-users * Please search the archive at http://www.gromacs.org/Support/Mailing_Lists/Search before posting! * Please don't post (un)subscribe requests to the list.
