Sorry, I actually have an update. Some data was saved even I am getting those error with xmf format. In this cone case, I am seeing everything in the legacy vtk file format with the two error I am getting. However, with my other dataset, I am seeing missing
object in the outputted xmf file format. <br>

thanks<br>

I got the error above when I open ParaView-4.1.0, and then load a cone using Source->Cone option and hit apply. And then do a File->Save Data and pick xmf file format.<br>

What would be the correct way to get my data into xmf format? And what would be the corresponding python script to do that?<br>
