Hi Ashish,

Can you make sure the test cases work - both serial and parallel in
$AMBERHOME/test/

It sounds like there is either a bug or a compiler bug somewhere. What
hardware / OS are you running on and which compiler + version did you
compile things with?

All the best
Ross

Also this simulation works fine with MMTSB toolset aarexamber.pl facility.

Using inputs as

minimization

&cntrl
   imin=1, maxcyc = 5000, ncyc = 200,
   ntx=1, irest=0, ntpr=50, ntwr=500, ntwx=0,
   ntwe=500, ntf=2, ntb=0,
   temp0 = 298.16, tempi=298.16, ntt=1,
   igb=5, tautp=1.0, ntp=0, cut=999.0,
   taup=2.0, ntc=2, saltcon = 0.0000001,
   ntrx=1, ntwprt=0, ntr=0, dt=0.002, ig=323657
&end
END

This does not occur for temperatures below 380K. After that for 400K, 420K
and 440K this was seem to be happening.

I tried running with rem = 0 and that run is just fine. It is happening only
when rem=1.

The averages in out files were in following way...

NSTEP = 10000 TIME(PS) = 60.000 TEMP(K) = 495.35 PRESS =
0.0
Etot = 56.1676 EKtot = 58.5688 EPtot =

-4.9558
EELEC = -158.7368 EGB = -230.2240 RESTRAINT =
0.0000

Also, the simulation fails after certain point when exchange occurs with
such an unbound state with replica at 300K and AMBER stops with message 
Coordinate resetting (SHAKE) cannot be accomplished,
in between atom number 35 and 37 (alanine carbon and hydrogen) 
Also, I am doing these termini because I want to simulate a zero charge
state. And this could be a small test simulation to check how that goes. 
Thank you very much, 
Ashish Sangwai 
p.s. - nice talk at ACS New Orleans in replica exchange symposium

that is very surprising- you might want to run the same inputs but set rem=0
and remove numexchg (just normal MD) and see if you have the same
problem. I can't imagine why REMD would allow the hydrogens to move so far.
what are your energies like in the out files?
as a note, your termini are unusual... are you sure that's what you want?

Hello, 
I am trying to carry out replica exchange simulation on polyalanine  (5 mer)
system in Generalized Born solvent. 
For replicas above 440 K, the hydrogens in the system are having unbound
co-ordinates. 
My input file looks like : 
 &cntrl
   imin=0, ntx=5, irest=1, ntxo=1, ntpr=500, ntwr=500, ntwx=200,
   ntwe=500, ntf=2, ntb=0, igb=5, nstlim=10000,

   dt=0.001, ig=323657, numexchg=500,

System was prepared in xleap with following commands : 
source leaprc.ff03
set default PBradii mbondi2
1a = sequence {ALA ALA ALA ALA ALA}
saveamberparm 1a 1a.prmtop 1a.inpcrd
In the most recent PDB file of REM simulation,  hydrogen co-ordinates are
unbound.....
This PDB was generated after 38 exchange attempts for a replica at 440 K.
Rest of the backbone is still  bound .
