Thanks Ben, That worked great! The partitions are much more stable using parmetis. I didn't even know if that was an option with serial mesh, so I learned something new. Cody On Tue, Jul 9, 2013 at 1:09 PM, Kirk, Benjamin (JSC-EG311) < [email protected]> wrote: > On Jul 9, 2013, at 12:40

[Libmesh-devel] Potential Centroid-Partitioner Bug

2013-07-09 Thread Cody Permann
I'm running a phase-field simulation with adaptivity and decided to use the centroid partitioner instead of the default partitioner (Metis for serial mesh?) for reasons I'll explain in a moment. Unfortunately, I'm triggering a segfault, but so far it's been rather difficult to hit. I've run the s
