I am converting a serial code to parallel in fortran with petsc. I am using the DMDA to manage communication of the information that used to be in old two-dimensional fortran arrays.</div>

I noticed when using DMLocalToLocalBegin/End, not all the ghost values in the array at the DM_BOUNDARY_GHOSTED area is updated. Is this expected behaviour?</div>

I read through this thread: <a href="https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/htdig/petsc-users/2016-May/029252.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">
https://lists.mcs.anl.gov/mailman/htdig/petsc-users/2016-May/029252.html</a> and saw someone had a similar question, but the answer was not clear to me.</div>

If this is expected behaviour, how should I instead update these values in my arrays? I was using DM_BOUNDARY_GHOSTED as I needed the extra ghost cells for some subroutines, but I do not need them in my matrix from DMCreateMatrix.</div>
