Internal pop2 clock not in sync with Sync Clock

Ever since Yellowstone came back online last week (since Nov 6 or 7), I've been getting the following error whenever I try to use "branch" to run CESM to run from a restart file in the experiment I'm currently running:WARNING: calling shr_mpi_abort() and stoppingpop2 ymd=       10101     pop2 tod=        43200sync ymd=        10102     sync tod=         21600Internal pop2 clock not in sync with Sync clock(shr_sys_abort) ERROR: ocn_run_mct: Internal pop2 clock not in sync with Sync Clock In the above case, I used a RUN_STARTDATE of "0001-01-01" and RUN_REFDATE of "0001-01-02" because I ran my new experiment for one day beyond the restart file from a previous experiment.  No error occurs when I run CESM using "hybrid" to do a simulation starting from a restart file from another experiment.  I did not get the above error before last week when I used "branch".  I've tried setting:iage_on = .false.so that the IAGE tracer isn't computed, but that didn't work.  I also tried deleting:1    IAGEfrom the *tavg_contents file, but that didn't do anything different either.  I noticed a similar question was posted before, and the solution had to do with the ideal age tracer.  But I must be missing something.  If anyone can help with this issue, it would be much appreciated.  Thanks.

This is indicative of a change in the ocean coupling frequency.  Did you change the ocean coupling frequency since you created the case?  You may have to run cesm_setup again to update the pop namelist.  To do so, type cesm_setup -clean then cesm_setup.  If that doesn't work, feel free to point us to your case directory.
