You can use DMSetOutputSequenceNumber(dm, step, time) to make it collate correctly. Paraview can handle any combination of time steps within the same file (as -ts_monitor_solution cgns:sol.cgns) and sequenced files (each of which may contained one or more frames). You can open it with `paraview file..cgns` or in the interface.
