AMBER Archive (2005)Subject: AMBER: doesn't work in pmemd, and no output in parallel simulations

Dear Amber-users,
I've done energy minimization of my system (~70,000 atoms, including water), and
then run MD with restraints on the solute by using sander. And then, I was
trying to simulate this system, testing with pmemd and sander with parallel and
no parallel. Sander and pmemd passed example test, so there may be no problem
with installation. When I ran the simulation with sander at single CPU, it
nicely worked. But, in ohter cases, I got two problems.
1) When I ran sander in one CPU, it nicely worked. However, when I ran sander in
multiple CPUs, I saw CPUs run but coulnd't see any output files (.out and
.mdcrd). I'm sure that I made right directory for output files. Could you tell
me why I can't see the output files in the directory
(/home/leehk/run/g5ace90-par4)? This is script file.
---------------------------
#PBS -S /bin/bash
#PBS -l nodes=2,walltime=500:00:00
#PBS -q protein
#PBS -N sand-cpu4
#PBS -j oe
#PBS -M leehk_at_umich.edu
#PBS -m abe
#
echo "I ran on `hostname`"
cat $PBS_NODEFILE
#
export GMPICONF=/home/leehk/.gmpi/$PBS_JOBID
export PATH=/usr/cac/mpich.eth/bin:$PATH
#
cd /home/leehk/run/g5ace90-par4
mpirun -np 4 -machinefile $PBS_NODEFILE /home/leehk/exe.eth/sander -O -i md2.in
-o md2.out -p g5ace90.prmtop -c md1.rst -r g5ace90-md0.rst -x g5ace90-md0.mdcrd
#
---------------------------
2) When I ran pmemd at one CPU or multiple CPUs, I saw CPUs run, but when I
checked .out file, I saw that .out file stopped like below. Since this system
work with sander, I cannot understand why it didn't work with pmemd.
I also attach my script file.
