[gmx-users] mdrun -rerun problems

[George Abadir]

Yes of course I looked at the output but I thought is I specify energy 
groups it will output only those specified and not the whole system. 
However I tried a short run and it did output both. For the crash it 
turned out it is because all the nodes try to read the huge trajectory 
file at the same time if this may help somebody in the future. We are 
still trying to figure out how to solve this problem anyway.
Thanks for your time.
