Thanks Ju. I studied this case carefully, and it seems clear to
me. When I apply the same techniques in my code, I get error
messages I sent to my reply to Matthew.<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
I've never used a mailing list before, so I hope this message
will reach PETSc users and experts and someone might be
willing to help me. I am also novice in PETSc.<br>
<br>
I have developed an unstructured finite volume solver on top
of PETSc libraries. In sequential, it works like a charm.
For the parallel version, I do domain decomposition
externally with Metis, and work out local and global
numberings, as well as communication patterns between
processor. (The latter don't seem to be needed for PETSc,
though.) When I run my program in parallel, it also works,
but I miss values in vectors' ghost points.<br>
<br>
I create vectors with command: VecCreate(PETSC_COMM_WORLD,
&x);<br>
<br>
Is it possible to get the ghost values if a vector is created
like this?<br>
<br>
I have tried to use VecCreateGhost, but for some reason which
is beyond my comprehension, PETSc goes berserk when it reaches
the command: VecCreateGhost(PETSC_COMM_WORLD, n, PETSC_DECIDE,
nghost, ifrom, &x)<br>
<br>
Can anyone help me? Either how to reach ghost values for
vector created by VecCreate, or how to use VecCreateGhost
properly?<br>
