Description for amber:

Running amber: From the Amber website : “Amber” refers to two things: a set of molecular mechanical force fields for the simulation of biomolecules (which are in the public domain, and are used in a variety of simulation programs); and a package of molecular simulation programs

Running Amber Amber is run on the command line using an LSF job submission script Eg :

#!/bin/bash
#BSUB -n 4
#BSUB -o %J.o
#BSUB -e %J.e
#BSUB -W 60
#BSUB -x

#Load desired
imodule load amber/14

#
# Submit the job using mpirun
mpirun -lsf pmemd.MPI -i mdin -o mdout -p prmtop -c inpcrd -r restrt

Submit using:

[me@scarf]$ bsub < jcl

Where jcl is the name of the job submission script file from above. If you would like to change the number of processors to run on, please change ‘bsub -n’ parameter.

To monitor your jobs progress use the normal LSF batch commands E.g.:

[me@scarf]$ bjobs

or

[me@scarf]$ bjobs -l
