Getting error when continuing E3SM simulation

[szebaze12]

Hello, I'm trying to continue a simulation from previous run in a new directory.
The initial run restart files was from.
v2.0.LR.F2010_restart_0064-01-01-00000_1yr_v25_code_1xCO2_20250529.
The new run :
006401_Monthly_Restarts_v25_code_1xCO2

Below is the error message:
PIO: FATAL ERROR: Aborting... An error occured, Writing variable (PIO_GLOBAL, varid=-1) to file (v2.0.LR.F2010_restart_0064-01-01-00000_1yr_v25_code_1xCO2_20250529.eam.h1.0064-12-27-00000.nc, ncid=19) failed. Inquiring variable type failed. NetCDF: Action prohibited on NC_GLOBAL varid (err=-50). Aborting since the error handler was set to PIO_INTERNAL_ERROR... (/geode2/home/......./E3SM/externals/scorpio/src/clib/pio_getput_int.c: 1536).

That file is encoded in the eam restart file. There is also reference to it in the "rpointer.atm" .

My question is: Why EAM would need a file with a date that is in the future of the restart date (0064-01-01)? What is the recommended approach to solve this?

FYI - I edited your question for readability. I find it much easier to understand an error message when it is separated from the other text.

It seems that the problem is that there was a partially written history file in the run you are trying to branch from because the end of that h1 file did not line up with the time of the restart file (0064-01-01). The solution should be as simple as providing the old h1 file.

Alternatively, you might be able to disable the h1 output in the namelist if you don't need them.

Ok.
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm still getting the same error message, even after providing the old h1 file: "v2.0.LR.F2010_restart_0064-01-01-00000_1yr_v25_code_1xCO2_20250529.eam.h1.0064-12-27-00000.nc"
