Yes, I've done this quite a few times since it came out.  Amazing how quick it can be to search the whole PDB.  Less than 8 hours on some of my boxes.

You probably have to run the simbad-database program?  Used to be you had to download morda separately, but now it seems automatic. Only problem is you need to be root or some other user who can write to the CCP4 installation directory.

# as root:
source /programs/ccp4-7.0/bin/ccp4.setup-csh
simbad-database lattice
simbad-database morda



However, I should admit that now that I try to run it again it seems to be broken.  Doesn't seem to be a way to point simbad to the new-style copy of the database.  However, if I point it to the one I made in 2018 it works fine:

simbad-morda ./data.mtz -nproc 448 -morda_db ${CCP4}/simbad-morda-db



But if I run:

simbad-morda ./data.mtz

it crashes after ~90 s with:

Hello All,

I would like to run SIMBAD to do a brute force MR on a data set that I have (running Contra-Miner didn't come up with any known contaminants and running SIMBAD with the Lattice and Contaminants search didn't give me anything). As I understand the documentation, SIMBAD can be run using the MORDA database (which I have on my computer). I've managed to run SIMBAD doing the Lattice and Contaminants search, but haven't managed to get it to run using the MORDA database for the brute force MR. As far as I can tell, the servers only run the L & C and not the brute force MR. Does anyone have experience (hopefully positive) doing this brute force MR?
cheers, tom
