  Blaise,
  
  ​
  
  ​thank you very much for you help. This helps a lot.
  
  ​
  
  ​By the way, I was not able to open the produced file in paraview 5.9.1 (failed with "EX_INQ_TIME failed"). However, ncdump seems correct. At least, I do not immediately see anything wrong there. I will try to look into this problem myself, now that I know it is ok to do direct exodusII calls.
  
  ​
  
  Thank you again,​
  
  ​
  
  ​David

It can very much be that I am missing something obvious. However, if I change the code to VTKViewer I get the desired output file.
