Hi Ranyere,

 

You can use catdcd to merge the dcd files after simulation – check out

Emne: namd-l: restart simulation writing in the same .dcd file.

 

Dear NAMD users, the energy was out for some time, so the simulation i was
performing on the cluster stopped. Now i want to restart using the restart
files, but i need NAMD to keep writing at the same dcd file, it can't
overwrite the old one, because the analysis i'm going to do require only one
dcd file, i can't have multiples.
So is there some tag on NAMD to tell it to keep saving the coordinates on
the same dcd file? Or if there isn't really a way of doing that, if someone
knows how to merge two dcd files.

Thanks everyone!
