[gmx-users] Problem with the MDS extended trajectory in Gromacs 5.04

[PAULAMI CHATTERJEE]

Thank you Justin for the suggestion. I was able to obtain a full trajectory using trjcat. 

However I would also like to mention that the exact commands I have shown in my previous mails produced the files with 'the names'. 

Can you please tell me if I want to have the full trajectory from the extension what changes should be made in the command line?Should I use 

gmx convert-tpr -s md_0_1.tpr -extend 70000 -o final_monomer.tpr
gmx mdrun -s final_monomer.tpr -v -deffnm md_0_1 -cpi md_0_1.cpt -append
Thanks and Regards,Paulami

So you have a trajectory named md_0_1.xtc - that should contain the first part 
of the run.  Then somehow you say you've got traj_comp.xtc (though none of the 
commands you've shown would produce a file with that name), so if that's the case:

gmx trjcat -f md_0_1.xtc traj_comp.xtc -o full.xtc

That will have the whole thing.
