Yes, you can also changed the initial condition in a start up run. For a F case, you would only need to change land and atm initial condition.finidat is the land initial condition
ncdata is the atmosphere initial conditionWhat is important is to change the land initai condition as it takes decades to spin up. The atmosphere spinups so quickly that it doesn't really matter if you change the initial condition. So you NEED to change the land initial condition with finidat. finidat = '/glade/p/cesm/amwg/hannay/inputdata/FAMIPC5_ne120_79to05_03_omp2/rest/2000-01-01-00000/FAMIPC5_ne120_79to05_03_omp2.clm2.r.2000-01-01-00000.nc'If you want you COULD also change the atmosphere initial condition use with ncdata (but it is not necessary)
ncdata = '/glade/p/cesm/amwg/hannay/inputdata/FAMIPC5_ne120_79to05_03_omp2/rest/2000-01-01-00000/FAMIPC5_ne120_79to05_03_omp2.cam.i.2000-01-01-00000.nc'
