If you are creating the whole mesh, then you want to enclose the creation
steps in

if (!rank) {
  <your current code for creating the chart and cones>
} else {
  DMCreate()
  DMSetType()
}
DMPlexSymmetrize()
DMPlexInterpolate()

There are examples of me doing this in the Plex tests.

  Thanks,

What most experimenters take for granted before they begin their
experiments is infinitely more interesting than any results to which their
experiments lead.
