Aggregate Dataset Filter crashes in Catalyst
The Aggregate dataset filter (I incorrectly reported as Redistribute Data Set Filter) is crashing in Catalyst API 1. Here is how to replicate.
- Run ParaView 5.11.0, remote server (16 ranks), Linux.
- Open g1s1. Apply.
- Merge Blocks. (Aggregate dataset filter does not take multiblock data.)
- Aggregate dataset Filter. Number of target processes: 4. Apply.
- Extracts/ png.
- File/ Save State. Save as junkState.py file.
- pvbatch - I believe 16 ranks. junkState.py file.
- There will be a movie output of .png images.
- Going back to ParaView,
- File/ Save Catalyst State File
- Use this as the controlling script for a Catalyst run. This is primarily on Sparc, but has also been seen on Sierra.
- This will crash with an MPI error.
Note we don't think this is an MPI version issue, as other MPI areas of Catalyst work correctly.
I can't find a trace from Jeff, ask if needed.
As LANL has not seen this issue, this may need to be debugged at Sandia.
Contact is Jeff Mauldin.
