Well, the setup and the PSF, PSF.EXPLOR, and PDB files were generated with
CHARMM 34b2. But the all runs where run with namd 2.7b2 Linux-x86_64-net-
linux-x86_64-ibverbs-icc.

I just did some analysis with CHARMM but only opened the dcd files for
reading. I never did changes to the original files produced by NAMD.

To answer you second question:

I restarted from run051 and run052 successfully completed. Same for the other
broken files.

I am kind worried that it really will re occur at run412.

Thanks for your help.
