Hi, Matt

Thanks for your reply. I went around by direct creating matrix with local to global mapping. But now I think DM_BOUNDARY_GHOSTED should be just fine given the information.

I've attached the output at the two different matview location. Some entries in the matrix disappeared after the second values add. And the order of matrix is wired to me, the matrix output is not in a ascending order. Appreciate if anyone would help.
