Hello,
yes, this is indeed possible (see
http://manual.gromacs.org/current/user-guide/mdrun-features.html#running-multi-simulations
for more information on multi simulations with GROMACS).
It is just the case that the tutorial system is too small to be
correctly distributed with domain decomposition. If you use a larger
system that will work.
Cheers
Paul
