Hi Ross,

I was running this test:

Amber14_Benchmark_Suite/PME/JAC_production_NVE

srun -n 2 --mpi=pmi2 --cpu_bind=socket $AMBERHOME/bin/pmemd.cuda.MPI -O -i mdin.GPU -o mdout.2GPU -p prmtop -c inpcrd

Yes, a single GPU run completes normally.

I tried another test in that suite, and though the 2GPU test completed, it came up with different (nonsense) answers.
Maybe there's something wrong with the MPI/build. It's just Intel impi & "configure -cuda -mpi -noX11 intel"

Thanks,
Sarah

The issue with GPU error messages is that if you have an array in memory that contains a NAN - say the force array got an infinite force - then things will be fine 'until' the code tries to upload or download from the GPU (or do a similar copy operation) - NAN's are not supported in these operations and thus you get the error that you see. The real error - e.g. 2 atoms sitting on top of each other occurred somewhere else entirely within the code. The net result is that just because the error is in the gpu_allreduce does not mean it is related to something wrong with the GPUs, or a driver issue or even a multi-GPU issue.
