Hi,

In Gromacs 3.3 and earlier that depended on whether you were writing velocities & coordinates to the full precision trajectory - we can only restart from a frame where we have that.

Starting with Gromacs 4, runs are automatically checkpointed every 15 minutes (by default). Then you can not only restart, but even append to the output trajectories.

Cheers,

Erik

Hi There,
I am running a long MDS for one protein molecule in water, To avoid error I am running the simulation in parts like 20 nsec each. Each time I am creating a new tpr, trr and edr using the tpbconv and mdrun. Last time when I fired a job for 60-80 nsec then the job crashed because of some power supply problem. Now I want to continue the job from where it crashed .. while using ..... tpbconv with tpr, trr and edr file it gave me message like
_---------------------------------------
trn version: GMX_trn_file (double precision)
Read frame      4: step      0 time 60000.000

Using frame of step 0 time 60000
Opened emprmd_np24.edr as double precision energy file
Reading frame      0 time 60000.000

READ 3 PRESSURE COUPLING MU'S FROM emprmd_np24.edr

40000000 steps (80000 ps) remaining from first run.
Writing statusfile with starting step 0 and length 40000000 steps... time 0.000 and length 80000.000 ps
-------------------------------------------------------------

above message indicates that it is going to start the run from step 0, which seems waste for me.... Can I continue the job from where it crashed, or is it better to run the 60-80 nsec job again?


With Thanks,
Vivek
