<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Dear Petsc developer,</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">I need assistance with an error.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">I run a code that uses the DMDA related functions. I'm using petsc-3.8.4.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">This code used to run very well on a super computer with the OS SLES11.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Petsc was built using an intel mpi 5.1.3.223 module and intel mkl version 2016.0.2.181
<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">The code was running with no problem on 1024 and more mpi ranks.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Recently, the OS of the computer has been updated to RHEL7<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">I rebuilt Petsc using new available versions of intel mpi (2019U5) and mkl (2019.0.5.281) which are the same versions for compilers and mkl.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Since then I tested to run the exact same code on 8, 16, 24, 48, 512 and 1024 mpi ranks.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Until 1024 mpi ranks no problem, but for 1024 an error related to DMDA appeared. I snip the first lines of the error stack here and the full error stack is attached.</p>
