Coloring multiblock data by field array sometimes fails in client/server configuration
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
Coloring blocks by a field data array does not always work in client-server mode when run with mpirun. Steps to reproduce:
1). Launch server with
mpirun -np 2 pvserver
2). Launch client. Connect to server in step 1. 3). Load attached multiblock file in FieldDataBlocks.zip 4). Choose field data "ID" 5). The rendered image should have four quadrants with distinct colors, but it does not.
When run in built-in server mode or client/server mode with only one server process, results are correct. When forcing rendering to occur on the server, results are correct. Hence, I suspect that field data is not copied to process zero correctly on the server.
