[petsc-users] transfer vector data diagonally on DA

Thanks Matt. It works now. 

I have another problem. I am writing this program. 
 
 for (k=zs; k<zs+zm; k++) {
  for (j=ys; j<ys+ym; j++) {
  for (i=xs; i<xs+xm; i++) {
 if ( i!=(mx-1) || j!=my-1 || k!=mz-1)
{
bodyFx[0]=1;
bodyFx[1]=-0.3;
bodyFx[2]=-0.3;
bodyFx[3]=-0.3;
row[0]=k*mx*my+j*mx+i;
row[1]=k*mx*my+j*mx+i+1;
row[2]=k*mx*my+(j+1)*mx+i;
row[3]=(k+1)*mx*my+j*mx+i;
VecSetValues(fx_test,4,row,bodyFx,ADD_VALUES);
}
VecAssemblyBegin(fx_test);
VecAssemblyEnd(fx_test);

Output: Print fx_test

 Here fx_test is a global vector. This program gives correct output on 1 proc. but on 4 processors,
the program runs but the outputs are wrong.

I also tried
 for (k=zs; k<zs+zm; k++) {
  for (j=ys; j<ys+ym; j++) {
  for (i=xs; i<xs+xm; i++) {
 if ( i!=(mx-1) || j!=my-1 || k!=mz-1)
{
bodyFx[0]=1;
bodyFx[1]=-0.3;
bodyFx[2]=-0.3;
bodyFx[3]=-0.3;
 fx1_localptr[k][j][i+1]+=bodyFx[4];
 fx1_localptr[k][j+1][i]+=bodyFx[3];
 fx1_localptr[k+1][j][i]+=bodyFx[1];
 fx1_localptr[k][j][i]+=bodyFx[0];
}
Here, fx1_localptr is an array from a local vector that is communicated from the global vector fx_test.
In this case as well, I get similar errors. 



Thanks.
Khalid

I would guess (because you provide almost no information about what you are doing), that
this is a domain on the edge. If you truly mean to have a periodic domain, you must set that in the
creation call. Then the local vector will also ghost regions outside the domain boundary.

I also tried unew_localptr[k][j][i]=u_localptr[k][j+1][i+1] which works but 
>unew_localptr[k][j][i]=u_localptr[k+1][j+1][i+1] or unew_localptr[k][j][i]=u_localptr[k][j-1][i-1]
