Dear Sir/Madam,
I scanned through the archive list ,but i was not able to find the exact
resolution to this issue. I am trying to build NAMD for host only (without
mic/gpgpu support) hybrid configuration (OpenMP/threaded + MPI) .But i am
having trouble running apoa1.namd example with namd2 smp binary. Brief
build procedure & errors encountered are as :-
1. I am compiling the charm (with smp) and then compiling NAMD with intel
mpi compilers.
NAMD smp build script is attached :* namd_build_smp.sh* .
The script generated namd2 binary successfully, but when i try to run the
namd2 + apoa1.namd example i get:
ERROR: Atom 27216 velocity is -10752.9 1207.92 -5988.05 (limit is 12000,
atom 268 of 667 on patch 64 pe 18)
ERROR: Atoms moving too fast; simulation has become unstable (1 atoms on
patch 64 pe 18).
(*attached*: *namd_with_smpError.log*)
2.
a) Then i again tried to build the non-smp charm (attached: namd_build.sh),
then i was able to run the apoa example using:-
*mpirun -np 23 ./namd2 ./apoa1/apoa1.namd*
(*attached*: *namd_with_nonsmp.log*)
This implies that the input file is okay , the troubles are with my smp
build procedure (i guess).
b) But with non-smp version if i try to run it as multithreaded/smp using:-
*mpirun -np 1 ./namd2 +ppn 23 ./apoa1/apoa.namd*
(*attached:* *namd_with_nonsmpError.log*)
------- Partition 0 Processor 0 Exiting: Called CmiAbort ------
Reason: +ppn cannot be used in non SMP version!
which is obvious.
I want to know that:-
Why the smp configuration fails while non-smp configuration succeeds ,
weather my build procedure or the input file is at fault? i.e.
- What improvements are needed in the build procedure (namd_build_smp.sh)
so that i cam run the apoa1 example.
- or, What modifications are needed in input file apoa1.namd example
to make it work on hybrid configuration(smp) without getting Atom
moving fast error ?
Any help/Hint/references will be very fruitful.
Eagerly awaiting your reply,
Thanks & Regards,
Puneet Singh
