How do we check the total number of 'DOFs' when using partitioned mesh to solve FE problems? Thank you.

You can do this automatically from the log file. 

Assuming that your commands ends with: 

./your_command | tee log

You can plot number of DOFs in ELASTIC element with the following command:

grep "name ELASTIC Nb. local dof" log | grep "rank = 0" | grep "row" | awk '{print $25}'
