Hi, With a dataset stored in Xdmf I get an interesing data duplication result. The set consists of 55296 points, each with associated scalar and vector values. See below for the XML file and HDF5 layout.
It loads fine when running PV standalone. But when loading this set on a parallel PV server (running on N nodes), the number of cells in the loaded datasets ends up being N, and the number of points becomes N * 55296. Looking at the Scalar Process Id values it seems the set is indeed duplicated on all render nodes. Is the use of Xdmf not supported for parallel PV? This happens with both PV 3.8.1 and 3.10.1, btw.
