Just like lennyly have said:
~~#FF0000:Thanks, smlewis.

Yes, “scons bin mode=release extras=mpi” can make execution code with supporting MPI. But how to run it, I mean the command options specification? It seems Rosetta3 changes a lot in command options from Rosetta 2.3.

I only find a piece of such information, such like:

-jdist_rerun -process: :condor -process: :process……

but it does not seem to work on my cluster machine, which well serves Rosetta 2.3 in MPI mode.

thanks, len ~~

how to run ?

The user guide looks like nonsense and useless. And the command line also have any indications about how to use the options for the parallel binary code.
Why?
If you use any of the command under linux, just like “ls, mv, etc”, there are many mannuals for their use and various options.

If you haven’t complete this suite, don’t release it. Don’t let the user do the try-and-error thing, and waste time to guess how to use it.

In addition, in the user guide, there is a simple protocol walkthourgh, I read many times and didn’t know what the code is and where it is located. I just found two word about it, that is “at FILE”. What does it means?
