Re: AMBER: Problems in Amber MPI version (64 bits machine)

Hi, Dr. Case:

 Thanks for your immediately reply!

 We successfully compiled the AMBER7 using MPICH_GM MPI and G77 compiler on
AMD 64 OPTERON (Suse OS) system. And it can run some benchmark jobs well.
At the same time, we can run another GB job smoothly . We didn't use
configure (this is for AMBER8?).

The weird thing is that: when we recompiled AMBER7 using MPICH and G77 on
this X86-64 system, and ran benchmark jobs, for all benchmark jobs, it is
okay if we used 1 cpu ( "mpirun -np 1 ../../sander ....."). But if we used
2 cpus, gb_mb could go through, and other benchmark jobs failed due to the
exceeding of vlimit (like my original post).

 Can you explain the problem which is normally due to high VDW energy? Is
it due to MPI system?

 Many thanks in advance!

Haijun
