[MOAB-dev] MOAB debug

Hello Iulian!
I've reduced the problem with that mesh to some point.
The mesh now contains no sets and no tags except for GLOBAL_ID and PARALLEL_PARTITION tags
For every quad i wrote its connectivity nodes global ids as tag NODES with 4 integer variables
Then i read the mesh on 1 processor but with PARALLEL=READ_PART option, get connectivity for each quad and check if new connectivity nodes' global ids are equal to what i have in NODES tags
I can see that starting from quad 4194304 connectivity is corrupted as can be seen on the screenshot attached
Previous tests show that tag data remains uncorrupted but connectivity table somehow shifts if there's PARALLEL=READ_PART option in load_file() function

Sorry, I didn't look at this problem.
One issue could be with the sets in the file.
Do you have many mesh sets?
Besides the parallel partition sets?
Can you delete the mesh sets that you do not need; probably you will want material sets and neumann sets, but if you have many geometry sets, it could be a problem.

to enable debug during reading or writing, you need to pass an option, like

-O DEBUG_IO=1 (reading) or -o DEBUG_IO=1 (for writing, with mbconvert)

It does not work very well if you run on too many procs, but on < 30 should be OK

Actually, the issue is a bit more wider
I have a problem with reading that huge mesh with option PARALLEL even on 1 processor, while it doesn't appear for serial load_file
Any advices on debugging that?

Hello Iulian, how can i enable debug output like "dbgOut.tprint(1, "Reading all nodes...\n");"?
Thanks
Anton
