Dear Gromacs People
I am working about md simulations of a linear polymer chain in water at high
hydration degree. The force field is G45a3, SPC water, NPT ensemble, gromacs
4.5.3.
I acquired a 50 ns trajecory ( time step 2 fs, all bonds constrained with
LINCS, PME, T=293 K, P= 1 atm ) with absolutely no problem using gromacs in
serial on my PC.
Therefore I was very surprised when, trying to repeat exactly the same
simulation on another computer where mdrun works in parallel (with MPI), the
molecular dynamics calculation could not start.
Even working on only 2 nodes, the run crashes at the first step, returning a
long list of LINCS errors and an infinite system energy.
Firstly I verified that the processed topology after grompp was the same on the
two machines.
Then I tried the parallel run using particle decomposition instead of domain
decomposition, without success.
The starting configuration was energy minimized to a maximum force of 90
kJmol-1nm-1. Is this value too high for a parallel simulation?
I can provide information about the mdp file and the mdrun errors of my
parallel simulation, in case.
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.
