Dear Matt


Thank you for your reply. I'm guessing that the line

if (rank) N = 0;
should be changed to something like 

if (rank != target_rank) N = 0;
such that an empty SEQVEC and scatter are created on each rank other than target_rank.

Hello


I have a parallel vector, and I'd like to copy its data to a sequential vector located on a given process that is not necessarily the 0th process, so using VecScatterCreateToZero wouldn't do here.


How might one approach this?

The function is very short: https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/petsc-current/src/vec/is/sf/interface/vscat.c.html#VecScatterCreateToZero
Just go in and replace '0' by the rank you want.

  Thanks,
