Dear Chris,

Thank you very much!

I am planning to set the output control option like this!

tinit               =  0
nstxout             =  2000
nstvout             =  0
nstfout             =  0
nstlog              =  2000
nstenergy           =  1000

I want to set the velocity and force option to zero and save the coordinate and energy every 1000 or 2000 steps ( 2ps or 4ps). By doing this am I missing anything.

regards,

Rob

Dear Rob:

To answer your question: just set up your run with nsteps for 5 ns, run mdrun, and then use tpbconv -until. A simpler option is to set it up to run 20 ns, but use -maxh to limit it to an amount of runtime that you pre-calculate to be similar to 5 ns of simulation.

HOWEVER:

You almost surely don't need to save this so often: nstxout = 100 (also nstvout, nstfout).

And you may not even need to save this so often: nstxtcout = 100 (also nstenergy).

I had no idea that there was an option nstcheckpoint = 100 as I use mdrun -cpt 6 to specify a .cpt file every 6 hours, but there is no need to write a .cpt every 100 steps.



Dear Gromacs users,

I am running an MD simulation but it looks to me that I am running out
of disk space.

This is my .mdp file

; OUTPUT CONTROL OPTIONS

; Output frequency for coords (x), velocities (v) and forces (f)
nstxout                  = 100
nstvout                  = 100
nstfout                  = 100
; Output frequency for energies to log file and energy file
nstlog                   = 100
nstenergy                = 100
; Output frequency and precision for xtc file
nstxtcout                = 100
xtc-precision            = 100
nstcheckpoint            = 100 ; checkpointing helps you continue
after crashe. This checkpint file is saved every 1ns


Please tell me which files i need to set zero.

I am planning to run my simulation for 20ns but I want it to run every
five nanoseconds until i see an aggregations in my system. So how can
I re-start my simulation every 5ns.


Thank you for your help

rob
