Hello Natalia, The error says that it is trying to change to a directory named /home/fmontenegro, but that such a directory does not exist. This is not a GROMACS error, but a problem related to how the cluster is setup. Your cluster administrator should be able to help with this problem. Best

This error is just for confirming that NFS falls, that is not functioning. But when run Gromacs, the connection with NFs is lost just few time of compute. This not happen when run NAMD 2.9 alone. And this is the command for the cluster: nohup /opt/openmpi/bin/mpirun -hostfile myhostfile2

So, if NFS is not functioning, there is little we can do on this list to help. My only guess about it is that maybe NFS is working but the home directories have not been exported to the working nodes. Perhaps a failure of NIS or LDAP configuration? I do not have experience with NAMD, so I cannot

Then you need to do some troubleshooting. Using GROMACS is a complex process, so you have to be very systematic in narrowing down the source of the problem. First, see if you can run GROMACS locally, in a single machine (preferably one of the nodes in the cluster) using only one thread and then

Hi, GROMACS doesn't make NFS go down, but it might expose the problem that exists anyway - which happens frequently on clusters that aren't set up appropriately. The GROMACS checkpoint process requires that the file system be present, so that the checkpoint process can compute and record hash
