[petsc-users] DMPlex Distribution

Thanks for suggestion. I am going to use a block-based amr. I think I need to know exactly the mesh distribution of blocks across different processors for implementation of amr.

And as a general question, can we set block size of vector on each rank?

Thanks

Amir

Hi

I am using DMPlexCreateFromDAG() to construct my DM. Is it possible to set the distribution across processors manually. I mean, how can I set the share of dm on each rank (local)?

 

You could make a Shell partitioner and tell it the entire partition:

However, I would be surprised if you could do this. It is likely that you just want to mess with the weights in ParMetis.

 

  Thanks,

Thanks
