Dear Peter,
I am running on our internal x86_64 Linux cluster (2*Dual Core AMD
opteron 2218, 4 procs per node, each proc 2600 Mhz), on 4 (1 node) or 8
procs (2 nodes).
The NAMD version is: NAMD_2.6_Linux-amd64-TCP
There is absolutely no error message (maybe next run I could run it with
strace and see if I can find out more) ... The job looks as if it
finished normally ... All output is complete (well except for the dcd
file) ....
The problem appears either with SMD or TclForces enabled and it is
independent on whether the job runs on 1 node or on 2 different nodes
.. The problem doesnt appear neither with standard simulations, nor
with ABF simulations.
It is not a dramatic issue since the .bak file is OK but I was just
wondering whether anybody else noticed such a problem ...
Cheers
vlad
