This looks good to me! I tested the instructions and it appears to have worked.
FYI for record-keeping, it did bring up 2 warnings but I don't think that these are related to the workflow you recommended

@alicebarthel Thanks!

Appreciate the heads up about the warning. It's been noted and we are discussing what to do about for the upcoming e3sm-unified release later this year.
