[petsc-users] DMPlex Distribution

Mark is  right. The functionality of AMR does not relate to parallelization of that. The vector size (global or local) does not conflict with AMR functions.

Thanks

Thanks for suggestion. I am going to use a block-based amr. I think I need to know exactly the mesh distribution of blocks across different processors for implementation of amr.

 

Hi Amir,

 

How are you using Plex if the block-AMR is coming from somewhere else? This will help

me tell you what would be best.

 

And as a general question, can we set block size of vector on each rank?

 

I think as Mark says that you are using "blocksize" is a different way than PETSc.

 

  Thanks,

Thanks

Hi

I am using DMPlexCreateFromDAG() to construct my DM. Is it possible to set the distribution across processors manually. I mean, how can I set the share of dm on each rank (local)?

 

You could make a Shell partitioner and tell it the entire partition:

However, I would be surprised if you could do this. It is likely that you just want to mess with the weights in ParMetis.

 

  Thanks,

 

    Matt

 

Thanks

Amir
