Hello!
I am trying to use Autobuild wizard and it seems that it takes longer time that I expected.
That's why I have next questions:
1. What is "usual" time range estimate for Autobuild run with default parameters if my model has 7 chains with 284 aa in each?
(if I'm running Autobuild on a single machine it does not finish in 3 days or on cluster with usage of 32 processors - in 24 hours)
2. Do I use phenix comman correctly for using several machines at once?
I used /phenix-1.4-89, command line
phenix.autobuild data=e239a.hkl seq_file=seq.dat model=model.pdb nproc=32
In 24 hrs, which is my limit on cluster time, I get next things -
AutoBuild_run_1_1_/AutoBuild_run_1_1.log ends with
Setting up to build 5 models to be combined into final model #1
NOTE: input model will be rebuilt in place: nothing will be added or deleted.

Failed to carry out AutoBuild_build_cycle:

Should I change parameters of the Autobuild which will dramatically reduce time for computations or should I ask for extension of my time for letting the programs to run as it is?
I would give more details if it is needed I just could not think of some other right now. And I would appreciate any advices and suggestions!
Thank you
