              <p>Dear all,</p>
              <p>    I am experimenting with hdf5+xdmf output. At <a href="https://eur01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.xdmf.org%2Findex.php%2FXDMF_Model_and_Format&data=04%7C01%7Cmatteo.semplice%40uninsubria.it%7Cb7db50b8974544e2f5ed08d9454ce429%7C9252ed8bdffc401c86ca6237da9991fa%7C0%7C0%7C637617019536687302%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C2000&sdata=gBEr%2BY1%2BD4Tw8u8oUdEiqJQgMmsHhqXAKr2Z9xBH8Do%3D&reserved=0" originalsrc="https://www.xdmf.org/index.php/XDMF_Model_and_Format" shash="R50qtb7nC/ZlBDdiZIPM7SH9q+XzIeq6rwFJvqUPGT2JhlmXLMGmTJdz+0Q1YqZ3jYuYx85BLOECIkEpgmp1LRdTNuSa3sy3KTCQTFUouMj7OY3IFj/Aivaj3dii3QFI9SS5Z0CFGk2OT5wPOHKlvdBkx5egzMFdZydrIoHRc5o=" target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">https://www.xdmf.org/index.php/XDMF_Model_and_Format</a>

              <p>However, if I call DMView(dmda,hdf5viewer) and then I
                run h5ls or h5stat on the resulting h5 file, I see no
                "geometry" section in the file. How should I write the
                geometry to the HDF5 file?<br>

              <p>Here below is what I have tried.</p>

          <div>The HDF5 stuff is only implemented for DMPlex since
            unstructured grids need to be explicitly stored. You can
            usually just define the structured grid in the XML</div>
          <div>without putting anything in the HDF5. We could write
            metadata so that the XML could be autogenerated, but we have
            not done that.</div>
        </div>
      </div>

    <p>Thanks for the clarification. It shouldn't be hard to produce the
      XML from my code.<br>
    </p>
    <p>Just another related question: if I call VecView in parallel with
      the HDF5 viewer, I get a single output file. Does this mean that
      data are gathered by one process and written or it handles it
      smartly by coordinating the output of all processes to a single
      file?<br>
