[AMBER] Error message in "make test.sander" Is amber compatible with dual processors?

Dear Ross,

 

I asked the personel responsible for setup the supercomputers, they said they have done the setting correctly.

 

On the other hand, they suspect amber 8 did not compatible with dual processor, while amber 10 maybe OK. Is it true? Could you mind to let me know if the error message only happens in amber8?

 

Best regards,

 

Annie
