Dear All,

I am running simulations of BMP2 protein and graphite sheet using
implicit solvent model (mdp file is pasted below). The graphite atoms
are frozen in the simulation and BMP2 is free to translate.
I got an error "Step 1786210: The domain decomposition grid has
shifted too much in the Z-direction around cell 0 0 0" after 1749.7 ps
of the simulation.

I then restarted the simulation without changing anything using the
cpt file created from the previous (crashed) run and the simulation
continues. It has run for over 60 ps now and is continuing to run.
This is something we tried based on a previous email on gmxlist from
David van der Spoel. We are using gromacs 4.5.5.

Any idea what this error may be due to? We know that the system is not
blowing up since it continues to run with the cpt file.

Thanks,
Sapna
