Thank you very much for inputs but i forgot to mention in previous query i
got one error ..with other protein ligand simulation i used same MD file
saving 200 steps..

*Cannot write trajectory frame; maybe you are out of quota?*

Whats the solution for this error ? is this same problem with saving 200
steps? or some thing else


You already got an answer to this - you're saving full-precision output far too often. The sysadmins of clusters typically put in place quotas (limits) on how much disk space any one user can occupy, to prevent one person from sucking up all the available resources. Or, if you're running on a local workstation or small cluster, you're just filling up your hard disk. Just because it "worked" before doesn't mean it will again - you have run out of available room to write data. Consider whether you need full-precision output every 0.4 ps - the answer is almost certainly "no."

Hello,

*and im using following commands dividing 20 ns to 10 ns each via
extending
simulation*


*#This is the first simulation MD.mdp file contains 20 ns setup*
grompp -f MD.mdp -c npt.gro -t npt.cpt -p topol.top -n index.ndx -o
MD_first10.tpr

mpirun -n 16 mdrun -s MD_first10.tpr -deffnm MD_first10 -np 16

*#This extends 10 ns simulation*
tpbconv -s MD_first10.tpr -extend 10000 -o md_extended.tpr

mpirun -n 16 mdrun -s md_extended.tpr -deffnm MD_first10 -cpi
MD_first10.cpt -append -np 16


But it is crashed giving following error

*XTC error - maybe you are out of quota?*
*
*
*dont know why it happened it is because as im saving .trr file every
200ps? is it creating large files? or should i give different name in
extending simulation?*

No you are writing every 200 steps not ps this is explained in the
turtorials and the manual
You can check the file size by looking at ls -lh my guess is both the trr
and xtc will be gigantic

*Please help*
