[petsc-users] [2]PETSC ERROR: MatPermute not available for Mat type mpiaij!

[丁老师]

Daer Barry:
    Matrix A is the coeffcients not the mesh. I use the MatPermute following the ksp examples in dev version ex18. 
After the line 77, we declared a parallel matrix , at line 78, we declare a seq matrix.
so what is this seq matrix for ?
 77: MatMPIAIJSetPreallocation(A,5,NULL,5,NULL);
 78: MatSeqAIJSetPreallocation(A,5,NULL);

For the ordering I think you want to use MATORDERINGRCM. Now you just renumber the mesh nodes on each process and update the the ghost node information to reflect the new ordering.
