What kind of simulation were you trying to perform, what was your
command line input, and what does your MD input file look like?

Honestly, if this is not an ensemble run (e.g. REMD etc) I can pretty
much guarantee that pmemd will not scale to 171 nodes. Also, I've
personally only seen fair to poor performance from OpenMPI + Amber. In
my opinion you are better off with mvapich or Intel MPI if those are
available.
