Yes, we only use it for linear algebra, e.g. solving a linear system and
updating an array with a problematic algorithm.

Because it looks live ViennaCL doesn't handle arrays created with DMDAVec,

I meant copying a DMDAVec into a Vec object, the first is created with a
DMDA object for it's mapping across processors,

The error happens when trying to use KSPSolve() for a vector made with
DMDAVec routines, the matrix is created without any DMDA routines
