However, when I change the option -da_overlap 1, it crashed with the error message like "zero pivot row 12544 value 0 tolerance 2.2e-14". The option -pc_factor_nonzeros_along_diagonal does not fix this zero pivot issue.

   My guess is that it is bug in the da_overlap business or in the example; normally I would not expect this to happen. Is this a PETSc example I can run (tell me example and exact options) to reproduce the problem?

   Thanks
