<p>Hello PETSc developpers,</p>
<p>I have been using SLEPc and PETSc for solving my sparse systems for a small time now, and have been very satisfied with everything.</p>
<p>However, I have been running into an error lately, and I have been unable to find any online resource that talks about this specific error.</p>
<p>I use SLEPc to find all the eigenvalues of certain tridiagonal and symmetric matrices. I set the solver to find all the eigenvalues in a large interval ([0;10] for example) using the spectrum splicing technique. I use MUMPS because I would like to perform this calculation in parallel later on, but for now I am doing it sequentially.</p>
<p>While the solver works very well for small enough matrices (n=2000), when I increase the matrix size to around 10000, I get this error that I do not really understand:<br /><br />[0]PETSC ERROR: First shift renders no information</p>
<p>Could someone please enlighten me as to what this error means? I don't know if it's relevant but I am using older version of PETSc (3.8.4) and SLEPc (3.8.2).</p>
<p>I apologize in advance if this question has been answered somewhere already.</p>
<p>Thank you very much,</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
