I’m having issues with both SuperLU dist and MUMPS, as compiled by PETsc, in the following sense:
1. For large enough systems, which seems to vary depending on which computer I’m on, MUMPS seems to just die and never start, when it’s used as the linear solver within a SNES. There’s no error message, it just sits there and doesn’t do anything. 2. When running with SuperLU dist, I got the following error, with no further information: MPI_ABORT was invoked on rank 36 in communicator MPI_COMM_WORLD with errorcode 59. NOTE: invoking MPI_ABORT causes Open MPI to kill all MPI processes. You may or may not see output from other processes, depending on exactly when Open MPI kills them. -gideon
