Dear all,
I've used AMBER 9 quite a bit, but am just trying to run my first
replica exchange simulations. I appear to have MPI working properly
and the simulations are running just fine. This is on a xeon cluster.
However, all of my output files for individual replicas (with the
exception of the trajectories) are apparently being overwritten every
exchange attempt. I briefly see contents in them in between exchange
attempts, for example:
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run0.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run10.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run11.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run12.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run13.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 7028 Dec 14 08:58 run14.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 6830 Dec 14 08:58 run15.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 6830 Dec 14 08:58 run1.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run2.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run3.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run4.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run5.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run6.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run7.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:58 run8.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 7028 Dec 14 08:58 run9.out
But then I see:
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run0.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run10.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run11.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run12.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run13.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run14.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run15.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run1.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run2.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run3.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run4.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run5.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run6.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run7.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run8.out
-rw-r--r-- 1 dmobley dmobley 1 Dec 14 08:59 run9.out
Energy files appear to only have one block of energies ever. However,
my rem.log file fills up just fine, as do my trajectory files.
Here's a sample run input file for one of the replicas:
trajectory segment
&cntrl
imin = 0,
nstlim = 500,
numexchg = 5000,
nscm=100,
igb = 5, gbsa = 1,
cut=16.0,
tempi = 300.00,
temp0 = 300.00,
ntt = 2,
vrand = 250,
ntpr=5000,
vlimit = 0.000,
ntc=2, ntf = 2, tol = 1.0d-8
irest = 1,
ntx = 5,
dt = 0.002, nrespa = 2,
ntb = 0, ntave = 0,
ioutfm = 0, ntwx = 500, ntwe = 500,
ntr = 0,
repcrd = 0
&end
END
END
And here's my groupfile:

peptide_probes.prmtop -inf run0.info -e run0.en -rem 1

-p peptide_probes.prmtop -inf run14.info -e run14.en -rem 1
-A -i run15.in -o run15.out -c incrd15.crd -x run15.crd -r run15.rst
-p peptide_probes.prmtop -inf run15.info -e run15.en -rem 1
I've also tried this with the -O option rather than -A (which is what
I was using initially) and see apparently the same thing, which is
consistent with what the manual says (this should only affect what
happens to *existing* files).
Have I done something wrong? Why are my output files being overwritten
every exchange rather than appended to?
Thanks!
David
