I thought that the number should be 7 to 11 for the Diamond cluster. Something to discuss tomorrow.

Just so you know, the default in XCE, when you open it for the first time, is 7.



A wrong number can be entered when you are using NX and typing something, thinking you are typing "somewhere else" but you are actually typing in XCE, in the random cell that have been selected.



It happened to me.

Is Romain's info up-to-date?  I thought Rachael made it some high cpu number to force the queue to send it only to high memory nodes.



If not:  how would the "wrong" number get in there?

Hi Sabrina,



For some reason you had cpus=47 in the pandda.sh script file generated by XCE.

It should be cpus=7 (default).

This is what caused the issue I believe.



Let see: I started your pandda job and it is currently running.

If you want to see if pandda is still running, either type in a terminal window once in your project folder:



tail analysis/panddas/logs/*log (it will display the last rows of the pandda log) or

qstat –u mlk83353.



Cheers,



Romain.

Hi Sabrina,



Could you send me – in a separate message if you prefer – your visit path?

I have recently run pandda jobs for an old project which has >1500 datasets.



I had issues coming from mismatching panda versions (between the existing old pandda data and the new run) so I had to re-run pandda in a new “panddas” folder.



Could it be the case here? If you backup your existing panddas folder and run it fresh in a new one, does it run?



Cheers,



Romain.

So I took a quick look through the log. There isn't any obvious warning signs that I could see.



As for things I need, it is all in the log file (@Elliot just look in settings different to default), so if you're happy I can try it in my environment. Elliot also looks like hes volunteering himself to check it on a different queue.



Thanks, Conor

Hi conor/sabrina,







Conor, i presume you can run this on medium queue, and specify extra RAM.







Sabrina: If you can give us the path to your folder we can give it a go. Is there are any special setup for the run?

Hi Connor,



Thanks for your reply - to clarify, I am running on the Diamond servers through NoMachine. Do you think re-running it on your setup would help?



Thanks,



Sabrina

Hey Sabrina,



I have my own PanDDA setup - if you'd like I could try running the analysis with it on the Diamond servers?



Might help debug whether the cause of the problem is environment related?



Thanks, Conor

No — XCE should be doing it right. I’ll let someone from diamond chip in. They might be able to help. But I see no reason it shouldn’t be working.

Thanks,

Oh — yes that changes everything. I’ve cc’d the BB back in since this is diamond related. Are you running from the command line or through XCE?

It’s not really designed to be run on a normal desktop — and if you’re using a normal SGC desktop I wouldn’t expect much. Can’t say more without actual specifications though.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi Nick,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.



I have tried running it both from my home PC and SGC desktop so I'm fairly sure it's not the computer. It's 1 molecule of ~45kDa in the asymmetric unit.



Thanks,

Sabrina

What are the specifications of the computer you’re running on and what is the number of residues in the ASU?
