This example is written for a single processor only, it cannot be run in 
parallel.

These examples are in petsc-dev too.
ex8 is actually an ODE but it shows how to use the framework for implicit 
time-stepping solvers. ex19 is a DAE example.

Its hard for me to tell what "my problem" means. What are you trying to solve?

Yes these are all uniprocessor examples because they are really small. See ex17 
for a parallel TS example.
