Nothing has changed except (1) syntax and (2) the ability to now apply multiple restraints simultaneously. Everything with respect to setting references distances, etc. is functionally the same.

What should I do if I want to pull the solute to [0, 1, 2, 3] nm away from
the solvent COM?


You can do that with "pull-coord1-init = X" and "pull-start = no" but this is setting the reference distance to X, so if the initial coordinates are far from that value, you're imparting a large force to start, which may not be stable. It may work, but those initial steps are going to be dicey.

Here is the section I think you are talking about also:
Pull group 1 'a_Cooh' has 1 atoms
Pull group 2 'SOL' has 5715 atoms
Number of degrees of freedom in T-Coupling group System is 44530.00
Pull group  natoms  pbc atom  distance at start  reference at t=0
       1         1         0
       2      5715     18540       3.011 nm          3.011 nm

Hi,

I've made the change you suggested. The output file pullx.xvg has changed
from something like:

@ s0 legend "1"
@ s1 legend "1 dZ"
0.0000 3.01072 3.01072
0.2000 2.98101 2.98101
0.4000 2.94186 2.94186
0.6000 2.95316 2.95316

to this:

@ s0 legend "1"
@ s1 legend "1 dZ"
0.0000 3.01072 -3.01072
0.2000 2.98101 -2.98101
0.4000 2.94186 -2.94186
0.6000 2.95316 -2.95316

The second column should the COM of the solvent, the third column should
be
the position of a_Cooh. I am still wondering what is going on, since init
=
0.



pull-coord1-start        = yes

grompp tells you what the reference distance is at the start; check to
make sure this is what you want it to be.  pull-coord1-init = 0 means
"don't add anything extra to what is already there."

Hi,

The pullx.xvg file is returning the coordinates of the solvent, and not
the
solute (a_Cooh) as I want.
The solute is being pulled in a coordinate other than Z, although I
specify:
 pull-coord1-dim =N N Y
What is going on here?


Swap
pull-coord1-groups     = 1 2
for
pull-coord1-groups     = 2 1

to do what you had been doing in the previous version.  You've inverted
the pull vector relative to the 4.6 settings.

Hi All,


I'm having a similar problem and wouldn't mind some advice either.  I
am
getting LINCS warnings on one cluster that I run my sampling on, but
the
pull-code works fine on other clusters we have access to, which is
making
me doubt the entire process.

Best regards,

Billy

Hi,


I am changing from Gromacs/4.6 to Gromacs/5.1, and I have a piece of
.mdp
file that I am confused with.

I am pulling an atom of solute, indexed a_Cooh, towards the COM of

solvent.

This is a slab geometry, with the plane normal to the z-axis direction.

My

output (pullx.xvg) should contain the deltaZ value between the solute Z
coordinate and solvent COM z coordinate. With my current Gromacs/5.1
attempt, I don't think I am getting the correct results.

On Gromacs/4.6:
pull =umbrella
pull_geometry =distance
pull_dim =N N Y
pull_init1 =0
pull_k1 =100
pull_nstxout =100
pull_group0 =SOL
pull_group1 =a_Cooh

My attempt with Gromacs/5.1:
pull =yes
pull-ngroups        = 2
pull-ncoords        = 1
pull-group1-name = a_Cooh
pull-group2-name = SOL
pull-coord1-type  = umbrella
pull-coord1-geometry =distance
pull-coord1-groups     = 1 2
pull-coord1-dim =N N Y
pull-coord1-start        = yes
pull-coord1-init          =0
pull-coord1-k        =1000
pull-print-components = yes
pull_nstxout =100

Best Regards,

Dan
