Many thanks, Volker
I have re-run the code with the PRESERVE_SHMEM_BINARY_INVARIANCE and
binary compatibility has been recovered as expected. I still have a
question on this, by running the code with
PRESERVE_SHMEM_BINARY_INVARIANCE, as far as I understood, I am not changing
the accuracy or precision of my simulations, instead, I am just enforcing
the code to communicate in a specific manner. Is that right? If so, should
I interpret the difference in the outputs of runs without
PRESERVE_SHMEM_BINARY_INVARIANCE as a numerical uncertainty of my runs?
