I am using the release version 3.6.0. I tried with the development version and it is working fine now.

Thanks a lot,
Benoit

What version of PETSc are you using?  This has been changing recently.

-help will show you the parameters for each level, like
-mg_levels_1_eigest_ksp_type <GMRES>.  PETSc provides syntactic sugar
to do all levels by removing the "_1".

    Hi,
    thank you for the answer. I tried to change the ksp to cg to
    estimate the eigenvalues like you propose but petsc doesn't find
    the option:

    mpirun -n 8 ./ex54 -ne 1023 -ksp_rtol 1e-10

    -options_left
    #End of PETSc Option Table entries
    There is one unused database option. It is:
    Option left: name:-mg_levels_esteig_ksp_type value: cg

    I could not find it either by adding -help to get all the possible
    options.
    By the way, if I reverse the order of the option -options-left and
    -mg_levels_esteig_ksp_type cg, it doesn't print the left options
    at the end anymore.

    Is there something else to change apart from the option
    -mg_levels_esteig_ksp_type cg ?

    Thanks,
    Benoit

        Sorry for the delay. The problem is that the eigen estimates
        are bad
        for the Chebyshev smoother.  Unfortunately this fails
        catastrophically.

        First, I do not understand why we do not get an error message

        There are no unused options.

        It just stops.  What is going on here?????

        A problem is that GMRES is the default it is not accuare.  CG
        is much
        better.  I will add this to all tests (54, 55, 56) that use Cheby.
        Here is what we get with CG:

            Dear PETSc developers,
            I updated from 3.4 to 3.6 and I have a strange behavior
        with the
            GAMG preconditioner. I am running ex54 with the following
        options:
            -ne 1023 -ksp_rtol 1e-10 -ksp_monitor_true_residual
        -options_left

            I don't have the same behavior depending on the number of
        process
            used. It is for example not converging with 8 and 12
        process with
            the reason KSP_DIVERGED_INDEFINITE_PC but it is working
        fine in
            other cases (I didn't try with more than 12 process).

            Do you have the same behavior ? It is working fine with
        3.4 version.

            Best,

            Benoit
