Dear justin Thank you for your previous Valuable reply.
To do umbrella sampling should i run more number of steps than i run in Umbrella
pulling ?

That depends on how many steps were used for the pulling. Also note that the pulling step represents just one possible way to generate initial configurations and is not necessarily even required, so you shouldn't necessarily base a whole lot on this process.

otherwise if i use lesser number of steps in Umbrella sampling than pulling will
it affect result

You shouldn't try to connect the two.

Is there is any rule between number of steps and dt in umbrella pulling and
umbrella sampling?


The same rules as any simulation apply. Parameters like dt are chosen based on what gives a stable result. The length of the simulation depends on your convergence criteria.
