Dear Justin and Gmx users,

I want to extend my simulation in each window of 20 ns. For this purpose I
should use (example - window 0):

tpbconv -s umbrella0.tpr -extend 20000 -o umbrella0extend.tpr
mdrun -s umbrella0extend.tpr -cpi umbrella0.cpt -deffnm umbrella0 -pf 
pullf0.xvg -px pullx0.xvg



My questions:
1. Do I have to use -deffnm , -px, -pf or without this my files will be updated
to the one produced before?

Assuming you are using the latest version of Gromacs, -append is default and as such the file names recorded in the .cpt file should be used.

2. Will the umbrella0extend.tpr shall be used for a g_wham or my previous
umbrella0.tpr combined with umbrella0extend.tpr? How to combine them?


It may or may not matter which you use, since the information pertaining to the umbrella sampling itself is not different. You can't combine .tpr files; there's no need to. In your case, umbrella0.tpr contains information for the first time interval and umbrella0extend.tpr contains that same interval plus 20 ns.

-Justin
