running openmx in background Date: 2007/11/18 15:19 Name: Sumit Saxena Hi, How can I run the openmx in background using nohup command. I tried this command in the directory of the input file nohup mpirun -np 4 /home/sumit/openmx/openmx3.3/source/openmx Methane.dat | tee met.std & but doesn't work. the program runs at the front end. I also tried nohup mpirun -np 4 /home/sumit/openmx/openmx3.3/source/openmx & Methane.dat | tee met.std in this case the program doesn't get the input file. Thanking you in anticipation Sumit Saxena

Re: running openmx in background ( No.1 ) Date: 2007/11/18 21:19 Name: Vasilii Artyukhov Perhaps there's a more elegant solution but since this works, it suits me well enough... Try using an '>' instead of '|tee', then Ctrl+Z and the 'bg' command. Also, the actual details depend strongly on your system. Re: running openmx in background ( No.2 ) Date: 2007/11/28 03:35 Name: Sumit Saxena Hi, How should I execute it if I have to run it in through a script. because In our cluster we need to submit jobs through script.

Re: running openmx in background ( No.4 ) Date: 2007/12/12 12:58 Name: Sumit Saxena Thanks Vasilii for the suggestion I will try with that as well. this is what worked finally for our cluster SGE script. MPIRUN -np $NSLOTS -machinefile $TMPDIR/machines /home/users/students/ss524/openmx/openmx3.3/source/openmx Methane.dat
