[petsc-users] SNES with constraint diverges

[Josh L]

The following is the converging one(without setting SNESVI and variable
bounds)

  0 SNES Function norm 3.775139279770e-07
      Line search: Using full step: fnorm 3.775139279770e-07 gnorm
1.911103519935e-12
  1 SNES Function norm 1.911103519935e-12
Nonlinear smu_ solve converged due to CONVERGED_SNORM_RELATIVE iterations 1
