The problem is almost certainly in your machinefile. Processes are
allocated round-robin, using the entries in this file, which may be in a
place like /usr/local/mpich/utl/machines/machine.LINUX.
If you want two processes on the same machine, create a file like:
machine1.mydomain
machine1.mydomain
machine2.mydomain
...
then run with: mpirun -np 2 -machinefile <whateveryoucalledyourfile>
and you'll get the desired result.

Subject: Problem of running sander on Linux cluster
Dear Ross Walker and netters,
I can compile sander with parallel on Linux cluster as Ross's suggestion.
However, I have some problem.
My Linux cluster contains 12 boxes and 2 processors in each box (total 24
processors). When I submitted my job on box2 (or other boxes which are not
box1) with command
% mpirun -np 2 $AMBERHOME/exe/sander -O -i input -o output -c ...
I want to run 2 process on the same box (box2).I found that 1 process was
running on box2 and another process was running on box1. I don't know why?
Could you please give my the suggestion?
Sincerely Yours,
Uchom
