This worked fine. <br><br></div>Now, I created the matrix using DMCreateMatrix and fill it using the regular function. I get no error when I run the problem using mpirun -np 1 and I thought my matrix filling logic aligns with the DM non-zero locations (Star Stencil, width 1). With mpirun -np 2, no errors either. But with mpirun -np 4 or 8, I get errors which say : "Argument out of range/ Inserting a new nonzero at global row/column ... into matrix". <br><br></div><div>I would switch over the logic provided in KSP/ex46.c for filling the Matrix via the MatSetStencil logic but I wanted to know what I was doing wrong in my current code since I've never seen an error that depends on number of mpi processes.<br><br></div><div>I'm attaching the code ( which works if the matrix is created without using the DA, i.e. comment out line 159, uncomment 161/162 and I'm doing this on a small grid to catch errors.). </div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>You are assuming a lexicographic ordering of unknowns, but we do not do that in parallel.
