[gmx-users] gromacs parallel problem
Dear All, I configured gromacs 3.3.3 for parallel runs, using the precompiled packeges on ubuntu server 8.04, with LAM program 7.1.2 ( alreay present in server verison). I tried with d.villin benchmark but I detected an decrease of performance increasing the node's number. The obtained results for 1 node are: (Mnbf/s) (GFlops) (ns/day) (hour/ns) Performance: 6.686 1.437 8.471 2.833 The obtained results for 7 nodes are: (Mnbf/s) (GFlops) (ns/day) (hour/ns) Performance: 5.169 1.112 6.545 3.667 I have a cluster of 7 nodes (pentium 4 3.2 Ghz with RAM 2Gb) connected on 10/100 Mbps dual speed up hub. I don't know if it is a configuration problem (because with precompiled packages I couldn't use the configuration parameters described on web) or an hardware problem due to hub. Please can you help me? Is possible to improve performance changing some other parameters or configuration settings?

Re: [gmx-users] problem with mpi configuration.
Thank you very much for help me. I have try to install gromacs 3.3.3 on rhel 4.0. I try to configure gromacs single with the command "./configure --enable-mpi --program-suffix=_mpi--prefix=/usr/local/gromacs332", but when I try to install, I have this error: usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/gromacs/bin/grompp_mpi_d--prefix=/usr/local/gromacs333': No such file or directory make[3]: *** [install-binPROGRAMS] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/mario/gromacs-3.3.3/src/kernel' make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/mario/gromacs-3.3.3/src/kernel' make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mario/gromacs-3.3.3/src' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 I have try to edit the end of the configure command "/usr/local/gromacs332" with"/usr/local/gromacs333" and "/usr/local/gromacs" but I have anlogue errors. Can you help me? Thanks in advance.

Actually you can sync the mpich install directory (also gromacs). 2) You also need to have the same /etc/hosts on every machine. rsync that. 3) You need to grant ssh access without password by creating a rsa-key for every user Fell free to private message if you need any additional help.

Thank's Diego, I'm grateful to you. I have only one question. How can I configure mpi/lam for relaize the comunication between nodes? I have created an hostsfile with my ip addresses.

[gmx-users] problem with mpi configuration.
Dear all, I'm tried to configure gromacs in parallel but I have meet some problems. I don't understand if the problems are relative to mpi or gromacs configuration. For this reason I'd be grateful if you explained a detailed installation procedure of all that require to run gromacs in parallel, started by mpi/lam configuration. I now that is an hard and demanding request, but it is a big help for me because you are only resource. Thank's in advance Mario - - L'email della prossima generazione?
