thanks for hint... it is working now. since i don't know fortran at all,
i'm not sure whether my modification is correct in the sense of syntax
and fortran-programming habits, but anyway i post it here just in case
it would be useful for someone in the future...
this change is necessary (i think) only for openpbs/pbspro queuing
system and submission with p4 mode of mpich via mpiexec program. shmem
mode submission with mpiexec works fine.
mpiexec doesn't use mpirun, but connects to appropriate nodes and start
jobs by itself. it has some advantages over mpirun:
- gets the information for all running processes directly from PBS, so
it always has the correct information about e.g. cpu load, ...
- it properly kills all jobs when requested by user. mpirun-started p4
jobs that are killed by user often don't quit and remain as zombies on
the computer nodes, ...
! modification to enable mpiexec submission/execution
! add after line 164 in the original pmemd-3.1 file get_cmdline.f90

exit
end if
call getarg(iarg,arg)
if (arg(1:1) .eq. '-') then
exit

end if
end do
is there any chance to have this supported in some future releases of amber?
