It can be saved as vtm. There's another bug for fixing the exodus writer to write multiblock datasets.

vtm doesn't work. Try the following:
Client/server, 6 servers.
Open up disk_out_ref.exo. All variables on. Apply.
Save as junk.vtm.
Edit/Delete all.
File/ Open/ junk.vtm. Apply.

Output is as follows:
ERROR: In C:\alan\paraviewNightlyTrunk\src\ParaView3\VTK\IO\vtkDataReader.cxx, line 763
vtkPolyDataReader (0A527038): Unsupported cell attribute type: ² for file: (Null FileName)

Should we keep this bug open, or close it and open another for vtm files?

One more note, after the bug listed above, you cannot color junk.vtm by anything.

We need a vtm fix.

Woops, I didn't see that Utkarsh had already fixed it.

This is giving me troubles still, using can.exo.

client/server, but I suspect that doesn't matter.
Open can.exo. All variables on (but shouldn't matter)
Save as junk.vtm.
Delete all
Open junk.vtm. Output is as listed below, Unsupported cell attribute type:

give me a call if you think I am in error.

The issue is due to the fact that vtm writers cannot write in parallel correctly. BUG 0006698 captures that issue, hence I am making this resolved (since the original bug is indeed resolved).

The issue i was having is that the vtm writer is not parallel. It works serial. Closed.
