Dear Gromacs users

I have following error when I do equilibration:

There is no domain decomposition for 4 nodes that is compatible with
the given box and a minimum cell size of 0.8875 nm Change the number of
nodes or mdrun option -rcon or -dds or your LINCS settings.

I tried all suggestios in above error and Error page ogf Gromacs web site:

1) I changed -rcon and -dds and LINCS settings, but I have same fatal
error, again.

What is the optimum or the best values for -rcon and -dds and LINCS
settings in this case (error)?

2) I used -nt 1, this time, I had not error, but I encountered:
step 0Segmentation fault.
