PCASMSetTotalSubdomains

Sets the subdomains for all processors for the additive Schwarz preconditioner. Either all or no processors in the PC communicator must call this routine, with the same index sets.

Synopsis

#include "petscpc.h" 
PetscErrorCode  PCASMSetTotalSubdomains(PC pc,PetscInt N,IS is[],IS is_local[])

Collective on PC

Input Parameters

	pc	- the preconditioner context
	N	- the number of subdomains for all processors
	is	- the index sets that define the subdomains for all processors (or PETSC_NULL to ask PETSc to compe up with subdomains)
	is_local	- the index sets that define the local part of the subdomains for this processor (or PETSC_NULL to use the default of 1 subdomain per process)

Options Database Key

To set the total number of subdomain blocks rather than specify the index sets, use the option

-pc_asm_blocks <blks> -Sets total blocks

Notes

Currently you cannot use this to set the actual subdomains with the argument is.

By default the ASM preconditioner uses 1 block per processor.

These index sets cannot be destroyed until after completion of the linear solves for which the ASM preconditioner is being used.

Use PCASMSetLocalSubdomains() to set local subdomains.

The IS numbering is in the parallel, global numbering of the vector for both is and is_local
