[Openmd-users] Gold example using MPI

Martin,

We normally run MPI jobs as follows:

  mpirun -np 16 openmd_MPI file.md

(Note that this assumes you want to run a 16 processor job.)  Depending on the implementation of MPI you are using, you might need:

  mpiexec -np 16 openmd_MPI file.md

Various queueing systems set up their parallel environments differently, so you might need to alter the command syntax based on your local implementation.

Best regards,

 -Dan

Can you give me hint, how to run it in parallel? Probably using openmpi? I see openmd_MPI command, but i don't know how to use it (i didn't find doc for it).
