Dear Alan, thank you for your time.
The userguide you linked in your mail was interesting but it seems that the problem is correlated to Paraview, because the *.sos file format I used was correct. Just for a general knowledge: for some reason Paraview search the case files in the same directory of the sos file, independently from the path you write in the *sos file (it is not important what path to case file you write, I tried totally wrong path but the error was the same). Ensight write his data with the following structure: \general_path\3D_EnSight\*sos \general_path\3D_EnSight\DOM_0\*case \general_path\3D_EnSight\DOM_1\*case \general_path\3D_EnSight\DOM_n\*case Because the case files are stored in DOM_x folders, Paraview doens't find them. You have to put all the content of the DOM_x folders one step up, at the same path of the *sos file. Now it works. I hope it could be useful for someone.
