Hello Adrian,
sorry I forgot to mention that: yes regular MD does work with 2 GPUs with our cluster.

Best regards,
Florian

Calculations of the same system using a single GPU and the pmemd.cuda executable work fine, however when we were trying to do the calcualtion with 2 GPUs and using the pmemd.cuda.MPI executable we noticed that the calculations get halted at about 15000 steps.
