Hi Muhammad,

The test case you mention, tgtmd/change_target.ntr, has only 3
residues (ALA, ALA, TYR, at least according to the Amber9 test case,
which I assume is the same), which is less than the number of
processors (4). The parallel version of sander works by dividing
residues among processors, which needs more residues than processors
to work. So, the error mesage only means that sander cannot divide 3
residues in 4 processors, and then it stops. This test should work
fine with 2 processors though.

Gustavo.
