Dear users and developers,

the tests were run on one node of a linux cluster employing 8 cores.
Each node is a dual socket blade with two quad core cpus.
/proc/cpuinfo says:

The OS is SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (x86_64), version 10,
patchlevel 2.
Gromacs was build on this system as I have posted before.

 despite checking for the usage of the proper version of tests after

 For example kernel020 fails with

[gmx-users] problems with gmxtest.pl

2009-03-12 Thread Bernhard Bandow
Dear users and developers of gromacs,

although running the tests is straight forward some advice how to
interpret the results would be helpful.
If a test ends with
Testing xyz . . . PASSED but check mdp file differences
and 'diff' of the mdp files shows a differenet file header only
everything seems to be fine. Is this right?

One of the 45 pdb2gmx tests fails. Presumably it is that one which puts
its files into:
pdb2gmx/pdb-6pti/ffencads/none/spc
The potential energies of the other tests in ener.log deviate from those
in reference_s.log. Is there a rule of thumb how small the deviations
should be in order to be tolerable?

Best regards

Bernhard Bandow

[gmx-users] problems with gmxtest.pl

2009-03-11 Thread Bernhard Bandow
Dear users and developers of gromacs,

following the installation of gromacs 4.0.3 the tests show some
inconsistencies.
The software was compiled with Intel 11.0.069 compiler using mvapich2
Further options in configure were:
--enable-fortran
--enable-mpi
--with-fft=mkl
--enable-shared
The system gromacs is intended to run on uses mpiexec to initiate
message passing. So gmxtest.pl was modified at line 31 to:

  $mdprefix = mpiexec -np $parallel

The output in mdrun.out starts with

  -- NNODES=4, MYRANK=2, HOSTNAME=h01001
  NNODES=4, MYRANK=0, HOSTNAME=h01001
  NODEID=0 argc=1
  NNODES=4, MYRANK=1, HOSTNAME=h01001
  NODEID=1 argc=1
  NNODES=4, MYRANK=3, HOSTNAME=h01001
  NODEID=3 argc=1
  NODEID=2 argc=1
   :-)  G  R  O  M  A  C  S  (-:

...it seems to be a parallel run indeed.
Nontheless grompp.out of the corresponding run contains the lines:

---
Program grompp, VERSION 4.0.3
Source code file: statutil.c, line: 727

Invalid command line argument:
-np
---

which is related to line 159 of gmxtest.pl.

Are there any comments to the usage and position of the -np argument
under these circumstances in order to have more than an educated guess
for that?

Best regards

Bernhard Bandow
