Hi,
two on five have magic error at the same time. The simulation ends fine. Just the xtc files are
corrupted. The magic error is systematic, since I repeated the simulation 4 times and I get the same
behavior (at different time) after the continuing run. First time, I suspected for some I/O error,
but now it sounds a bit strange. I will ask for a long simulation 50ns without extending steps.
thanks in advance
regards
and

Hi,
yes sure. Basically I do:
1. mdrun -s runA_ -deffnm runA_ -replex 5000 -multi 5 -> i get the
first 5x25ns of remd simulation (five xtc every 5ps and five trr
every 20ps, for each replica). I check those files by gmxcheck and
they are fine. no errors.
2. for i in 'seq 1 5'; tpbconv -s runA_$i -nsteps 25000000 -o
runB_$i -> extension the simulation to 50ns total
3. mdrun -s runB_ -replex 5000 -multi 5 -deffnm runB_ -cpi runA_ ->
at end some (2 or 1 on the 5 xtc file) of the xtc are corrupted
(from gmxcheck) whereas the trr are fine. These are from 25ns to 50ns.
>From the log file I do not see any errors. Everything seems fine.
I have free room space in the hd too :)
I am just wondering whether the problem is in the xtc options
(precision and writing step)
I doubt it that it has anything to do with your xtc options.
Are all you xtc corrupted or only some? Are those which are corrupted
all corrupted on the same frame or different ones?

4.5.3. The total simulation is 50ns with 5 replica, and I do in two
runs: 25ns and then continuing to 50ns (walltime queue). The first
run is okay, the continue run (the last 25ns) randomly make some xtc
files corrupted (from gmxcheck I get the Magic Number Error).
I don't understand how the simulation can continue writing the .xtc
files when you are getting magic number errors from gmxcheck. We need to
see command lines for your workflow, please :-)

> It is strange since the respective trr files are okay and the
simulation is still going (it is not blowing up from the log, not
step.pdb files, not crash). The only difference is that I am writing
the xtc often respect to the trr file and just the complex not the
solvent:
