My Phonon calculations provide different frequency values for different parallelization on the cluster especially for the total number of processors used. Is itpossible or I am doing something very wrong? As vibrational frequency is gauge invariat how it can be possible?

Thanks,

It is not possible, with one exception: zero-frequency acoustic modes that have non-zero frequencies; these can vary a lot, but they are anyway set to zero by imposing the acoustic sum rule.

It might be a bug, but it is hard to say more without knowing what you exactly computed on which code version
