Hi All,

I am attempting to run a channel flow simulation with 2 sets of periodic
boundaries (inlet/outlet and the spanwise boundaries), but am running into
issues.  When running the solver, I get the following error:

Fatal   : Level 0 assertion violation
Local copy of allCompPairs not the same for all ranks

My boundary conditions are defined as follows:

        <BOUNDARYREGIONS>
              <B ID="0"> C[1] </B>    <!-- inlet -->
              <B ID="1"> C[2] </B>    <!-- outlet -->
              <B ID="2"> C[3] </B>    <!-- side1 -->
              <B ID="3"> C[4] </B>    <!-- side2 -->
              <B ID="4"> C[5] </B>    <!-- bottom -->
              <B ID="5"> C[6] </B>    <!-- top -->
        </BOUNDARYREGIONS>
        <BOUNDARYCONDITIONS>
            <REGION REF="0">
                <P VAR="u" VALUE="[1]" />
                <P VAR="v" VALUE="[1]" />
                <P VAR="w" VALUE="[1]" />
                <P VAR="p" VALUE="[1]" />
            </REGION>
            <REGION REF="1">
                <P VAR="u" VALUE="[0]" />
                <P VAR="v" VALUE="[0]" />
                <P VAR="w" VALUE="[0]" />
                <P VAR="p" VALUE="[0]" />
            </REGION>
            <REGION REF="2">
                <P VAR="u" VALUE="[3]" />
                <P VAR="v" VALUE="[3]" />
                <P VAR="w" VALUE="[3]" />
                <P VAR="p" VALUE="[3]" />
            </REGION>
            <REGION REF="3">
                <P VAR="u" VALUE="[2]" />
                <P VAR="v" VALUE="[2]" />
                <P VAR="w" VALUE="[2]" />
                <P VAR="p" VALUE="[2]" />
            </REGION>
            ...
    <\BOUNDARYCONDITIONS>

The bash script uses the following commands to convert the mesh and run
thet solver:

NekMesh -m peralign:surf1=1:surf2=2:dir=x -m peralign:surf1=3:surf2=4:dir=y
channel.msh channel.xml
srun --mpi=pmix_v3 -N $SLURM_NNODES IncNavierStokesSolver -v --use-scotch
channel.xml settings.xml

Can anyone provide some help on what needs to be done to correct this?  The
simulation runs without issues when I have only one set of periodic
boundaries specified (at the inlet/outlet).
