In my thermomechanical convection code, I set up and solve two linear systems, 
the first for the Stokes system and the second for an energy equation. 
Currently, these are separate matrices and during each timestep I first create 
a KSP object for each system, then solve, then destroy the KSP contexts. I 
would like to try out the -pc_type fieldsplit for the Stokes system, but is it 
possible to use -pc_type fieldsplit for the Stokes  system and different 
pc_type and ksp_type for the energy equation? Is there perhaps a way to name 
the KSP associated with the Stokes system and then refer to this label from the 
command line (e.g. -pc_type_0 fieldsplit -pc_type_1 lu) ? Thanks very much for 
your help.
