Dear List,
I am trying to use parallel amber on a cluster, but it does not work on different nodes. It runs parallel on master node, i.e., on 4 processors when I use the following command:
mpirun -np 8 /opt/amber9/exe/sander -O -i min.in -o min.out -p egf-egfr_solvated.prmtop -c egf-egfr_solvated.inpcrd -r min.rst -ref egf-egfr_solvated.inpcrd
This is to run sander on sum of 8 processors on two nods. Here is part of the error message that I get:
Unit 5 Error on OPEN: min.in
Unit 5 Error on OPEN: min.in
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
It seems that [at least] one of the processes that was started with
mpirun did not invoke MPI_INIT before quitting (it is possible that
more than one process did not invoke MPI_INIT -- mpirun was only
notified of the first one, which was on node n0).
mpirun can *only* be used with MPI programs (i.e., programs that
invoke MPI_INIT and MPI_FINALIZE). You can use the "lamexec" program
to run non-MPI programs over the lambooted nodes.

If I do the same command using just 4 processors on my master node it works perfectly. I don’t understand what I am doing wrong.
I appreciate it if you could kindly help me with this.
Cheers, Siavoush
