Did you preprocess the .tpr file for 2 cores with grompp?

This was only necessary for GROMACS 3.

Also, I
believe you have to have an additional -np 2 after the mdrun_mpi

This was only necessary with early versions of MPI libraries.

command: mpirun -np 2 mdrun_mpi -s 200ns.tpr -e 200ns.edr -o 200ns.trr
-g 200ns.log
-c 200ns.gro -np 2
-- at least this is what I understand from what my prof told me. We just
started running parallel simulations for an undergraduate research
project and I believe that is how we input commands. I'm sure the
gromacs experts will correct me if I'm wrong.

Good luck!

    Hi,

    I want to use my dual core PC to do the simulation.
    The version of GROMACS installed is version 4.0.5.
    According the message post by others on mailing list before.
    I type "lamboot" first, and type the commend:
    mpirun -np 2 mdrun_mpi -s 200ns.tpr -e 200ns.edr -o 200ns.trr -g
    200ns.log
    -c 200ns.gro.
    When the simulation starts, I use the commend, "top", to check the
    utility
    of CPU.
    I found there is only one core which is used by GROMACS.
    And the utility of this core is separated to 52% and 48% for two
    mdrun_mpi
    jobs.
    How can I do for that?
    Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated.

    Hsin-Lin
