# DMSwarmMigrate
Relocates points defined in the `DMSWARM` to other MPI-ranks 
## Synopsis
```
#include "petscdmswarm.h"   
PetscErrorCode DMSwarmMigrate(DM dm, PetscBool remove_sent_points)
```
Collective


## Input parameters

- ***dm -*** the `DMSWARM`
- ***remove_sent_points -*** flag indicating if sent points should be removed from the current MPI-rank





## Notes
The `DM` will be modified to accommodate received points.
If `remove_sent_points` is `PETSC_TRUE`, any points that were sent will be removed from the `DM`.
Different styles of migration are supported. See `DMSwarmSetMigrateType()`.
