<p>Dear Matt,</p>
<p> I guess you're right: thresholding by rank==0 and
rank==1 in paraview reveals that it is indeed the
overlap cells that are appear twice in the output.<br>
</p>
<p>The attached file is not exactly minimal but
hopefully short enough. If I run it in serial, all is
ok, but with</p>
<p> mpirun -np 2 ./saveDemo</p>
<p>it creates a 10x10 grid, but I get "output.vtu" with
a total of 120 cells. However the pointSF of the
DMPlex seems correct.</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p> Matteo<br>

<p>Dear petsc-users,<br>
</p>
<p> I am having issues with output of
parallel data attached to a DMPlex (or maybe
more fundamental ones about DMPlex...).</p>
<p>So I currently</p>
<ol>
<li>create a DMPlex
(DMPlexCreateGmshFromFile or
DMPlexCreateBoxMesh)</li>
<li>partition it</li>
<li>and create a section for my data layout
with DMPlexCreateSection(ctx.dmMesh, NULL,
numComp, numDof, numBC, NULL, NULL, NULL,
NULL, &sUavg)</li>
<li>DMSetLocalSection(ctx.dmMesh, sUavg)</li>
<li>create solLoc and solGlob vectors with
DMCreateGlobalVector and
DMCreateLocalVector</li>
<li>solve ....</li>
<li>VecView(ctx.solGlob, vtkViewer) on a
.vtu file<br>
</li>
</ol>
<p>but when I load data in ParaView I get more
cells than expected and it is as if the
cells in the halo are put twice in output.
(I could create a MWE if the above is not
clear)<br>
</p>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div>I think we need an MWE here, because from the
explanation above, it should work.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>However, I can try to guess the problem. When
you partition the mesh, I am guessing that you
have cells in the overlap. These cells</div>
<div>must be in the point SF in order for the
global section to give them a unique owner.
Perhaps something has gone wrong here.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div> Thanks,</div>

<p>I guess that the culprit is point (4), but
if I replace it with DMSetGlobalSection then
I cannot create the local vector at point
(5).<br>
</p>
<p>How should I handle this properly? In my
code I need to create both local and global
vectors, to perform at least GlobalToLocal
and to save the global data.<br>
</p>
<p>(On a side note, I tried also HDF5 but then
it complains about the DM not having a
DS...; really, any working solution that
allows data to be explored with Paraview is
fine)<br>

<p>Thanks for any advice!<br>
