Re: [gmx-users] Restart simulation from checkpoint file with fewer nodes

2016-05-16 Thread Husen R
Hi all, After spending time for troubleshooting, I found that gromacs checkpoint/restart feature is working well. The failure occurred because I use root user to submit restart job (using slurm resource manager). After switching to non root user, the restart process is running. The reason why I

Hi, Yes, that's one way to work around the problem. In some places, a module subsystem can be used to take care of the selection automatically, but you don't want to set one up for just you to use. Mark On Sun, May 15, 2016 at 11:48 AM wrote: > Thanks Mark, > > My

Thanks Mark, My sysadmins have let me install my own GROMACS versions and have not informed me of any such mechanism. Would you suggest I qrsh into a node of each type and build an mdrun-only version on each? I'd then select a particular node type for a submit script with the relevant mdrun.

thanks a lot for your fast response. I have tried it, and it failed. I ask in this forum just to make sure. However, there was something in my cluster that probably make it failed. I'll handle it first and then retry to restart again. Regards, Husen On Sat, May 14, 2016 at 7:58 AM, Justin
