Hi, Recent versions of exodus are implemented with netcdf4, which is based on hdf5. Instead of going through the process of rewriting exodus viewers, I would like to use PETSc’s HDF5 I/O operations. Problem is that as far as I can understand, exodus / netcdf does not use hdf5 time steps. Instead, it writes a single vector containing all values of a field at all time steps. (i.e. if vij denotes the i^th component of v at time step j, v is written as a single array v11, v21, v31, . . ., v12, v22, v32, . . ., v13, v23, . . .) and so on). Is there a way to use VecView hdf5 to read/write only entries kn:(k+1)n-1 in an hdf5 file?
