Dear NAMD users,

I am running a Free Energy calculation on KRAKEN and I got the following
error. ( Sorry I don't know if it is appropriate to port here )

Try increasing the value of env var MPICH_UNEX_BUFFER_SIZE (cur value is
62914560),
and/or reducing the size of MPICH_MAX_SHORT_MSG_SIZE (cur value is 128000).

I also add the following lines in the running script after the aprun but I
still got the same error.

aprun -n \$PBS_NNODES -cc cpu
/lustre/scratch/jphillip/NAMD_2.7_CRAY-XT-Kraken/namd2 $CONFFILE >& $LOGFILE

setenv MPICH_PTL_SEND_CREDITS -1
setenv MPICH_MAX_SHORT_MSG_SIZE 8000
setenv MPICH_PTL_UNEX_EVENTS 100M
setenv MPICH_UNEX_BUFFER_SIZE 500M

It seems that it is not changing the default values. Any help will be highly
appreciate it.

Thanks
