How to replace the variable in finidat with the output from the restart file?

[Paul]

Hello, I'm using IHistClm50BgcCrop in CESM2.1.3 and the resolution is f09_g17. I want to replace the variable in the initial file (finidat) with the output from the restart file. But I found the dimension size in the finidat file and the "r." file is different. For example, the variable "leafc" is [pft | 64847] in the finidat and [pft | 800154] in the restart file. How should I make the replacement?
Thanks in advance.

If this is out of the box, then the initial file should be:

clmi.I2000Clm50BgcCrop.2011-01-01.1.9x2.5_gx1v7_gl4_simyr2000_c190312.nc

which has pft = 64847.

At run time, that initial file is interpolated to the resolution you are running at (f09_g17). A new initial file will be created in your run directory:

finidat_interp_dest.nc

which has pft = 800154

So it seems like you could take leafc from the restart file and put it into finidat_interp_dest.nc and set finidat to that file and run the model.
You may also want to set use_init_interp = .false. since there shouldn't be a need to interpolate.
Caveat, I haven't tested any of this.
