[petsc-users] Using parmetis from petsc

[Edoardo alinovi]

Hello PETSc friends,

I am working on a code to partition a mesh in parallel and I am looking
at parmetis. As far as I know petsc is interfaced with metis and parmetis
and I have seen people using it within dmplex. Now, I am not using dmplex,
but  I have petsc compiled along with my code for the linear system part.
I am wondering if there is a way to load up a mesh file in the parmetis
format and use petsc to get the elements partitioning only in output. Is
that possible?

Thank you for the help,

Edoardo
