Double CO2 simulation in WACCM6

I want to run a simulation similar to the BWma1850 compset, but that has fixed sea-surface temperature (see long name below) and then double the CO2 concentration.
Simulation long name:
Code:
1850_CAM60%WCCM_CLM50%BGC-CROP_CICE_DOCN%SOM_MOSART_CISM2%NOEVOLVE_SWAV_TEST

My first approach was to only change the variable `co2vmr=569.4e-6` in `user_nl_cam` according to this tutorial. This did not seem to give any results (and the change is also not reflected in `CaseDocs/atm_in`), so I tried to look for all instances of "co2" using ripgrep: `rg -i -P -C2 '(?<!x)co2'` (see output in the attached file).

From this it seems to me that updating the `CCSM_CO2_PPMV` variable in `env_run.xml` is the only other reasonable option.
Is this the correct way to do it, or is there another path to take?
