question on DMMG

I'm interested in trying to use multi-grid techniques to solve my problem,
but it's unclear to me how to define the right-hand side and system matrix
for my case where the grids are not uniform (ie, the grid lengths x,y,z are
variable, and the grid properties are variable).

Right now I'm solving my equations using a DA. So, on the finest scale I know
how to compute the RHS and the Jacobian. It's unclear to me how PETSc
does the multi-gridding, and therefore how I would write my code.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks, Randy
