Hello,

I am trying to solve the incompressible n-s equations by
PCFieldSplit.

The large matrix and vectors are formed by MatCreateNest()
and VecCreateNest().
The system is solved directly by the following command:
    -ksp_type fgmres \
    -pc_type fieldsplit \
    -pc_fieldsplit_type schur \
    -pc_fieldsplit_schur_fact_type full \
    -ksp_converged_reason \
    -ksp_monitor_true_residual \
    -fieldsplit_0_ksp_type preonly \
    -fieldsplit_0_pc_type cholesky \
    -fieldsplit_0_pc_factor_mat_solver_package mumps \
    -mat_mumps_icntl_28 2 \
    -mat_mumps_icntl_29 2 \
    -fieldsplit_1_ksp_type preonly \
    -fieldsplit_1_pc_type jacobi \
Output:
0 KSP unpreconditioned resid norm 1.214252932161e+04 true resid norm 1.214252932161e+04 ||r(i)||/||b|| 1.000000000000e+00 1 KSP unpreconditioned resid norm 1.642782495109e-02 true resid norm 1.642782495109e-02 ||r(i)||/||b|| 1.352916226594e-06
Linear solve converged due to CONVERGED_RTOL iterations 1

The system is solved iteratively by the following command:
    -ksp_type fgmres \
    -pc_type fieldsplit \
    -pc_fieldsplit_type schur \
    -pc_fieldsplit_schur_factorization_type diag \
    -ksp_converged_reason \
    -ksp_monitor_true_residual \
    -fieldsplit_0_ksp_type preonly \
    -fieldsplit_0_pc_type gamg \
    -fieldsplit_1_ksp_type minres \
    -fieldsplit_1_pc_type none \

Both methods give answers, but they are different so I am wondering
if it is possible that you can help me figure out which part I am
doing wrong.

Thank you for your time.

Kind Regards,
Shidi
