Re: [AMBER] Error in REMD with pmemd.cuda.MPI

Hello Kurisaki,

The REMD code was designed to execute with one replica per GPU. As the number of replicas has to necessarily be even, the only way to run REMD with 3 GPUs is if you are running more than one replica per GPU. This is very bad for computational efficiency, and can lead to problems like the one you are showing.

Just to make sure this is the only cause of your error: try to run the same calculation reduced to only 2 replicas (with 2 GPUs) and see if your error message still shows up.

I hope this helps,
All the best,

Dear Ambers,



Thank you for usual support.



I¡¯m now facing with the following error message, that is,

¡°Error: out of memory launching kernel kCalculateNMREnergy¡±.



This appeared when I tried REMD with pmemd.cuda.MPI with three GPU cards.

I first doubted memory shortage of GPU cards,

although GPU memories are still available (2800/11000 MiB for each of three
GPU cards)



I¡¯m happy If you give some advices to condition where this message is
returned.



Best regards,



¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡Kurisaki
