[gmx-users] Running on two nodes

Hi Mark,

Thank you for pointing this out. I've seen in the log file that it's
running on 1 node only. In our local computing cluster, I requested for two
nodes for this run. Do you think there's something wrong with the GROMACS
command that I'm giving, that's why only 1 node is being used? Or is it
more an issue on our cluster?

The command I'm running is:

mpirun -np 4 gmx_mpi mdrun -v -nsteps 15000 -resetstep 12000 -s
production.tpr -noconfout -nb gpu -pme gpu -npme 1 -nstlist 80 -g
nstlist_80_4rank -ntomp 10 -gputasks 0011

Thanks,
Searle
