clock error when doing a resubmit

Hi, I have seen a post for something like this in this forum, but it never described what was done to solve the problem.
I am doing a 20-year atm only run. The job does 20 1-year runs that are automatically resubmitted each year. After 9
years of having the resubmissions work fine, it suddenly wont let me resubmit the next year. I get an error that says

ERROR: ice_run_mct:: Internal sea-ice clock not in sync with Sync Clock

Im sure its a simple fix but I cannot figure out how to correct this. If you have any insight into this, id really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Cara-Lyn

CSEG and Liaisons
Since you had 9 successful resubmissions my guess is that this is a system problem which has resulted in inconsistent information in the rpointer files. In the run directory along with the restart files you should find 5 files with the names rpointer.* where * refers to the suffixes atm, drv, ice, lnd, and ocn. These files contain the names of the datasets that are used in a restart. Check that the filenames in the rpointer files are consistent, specifically, they need to all have the same timestamp string.
