POP-ECT Failure with CESM2.1.3

Hi all

I am double checking a port of CESM 2.1.3 on Archer2 and the POP-ECT test is failing, even though the UF-ECT succeeds with no issue. The output on the verification website is

CESM Version Tested: CESM 2.1.3
Metadata retrieved from: popcase.cesm_213.000.pop.h.0001-12.nc

**********Run 1 (file=/cesmwebverify/ensembles/20220517041807840748/popcase.cesm_213.000.pop.h.0001-12.nc):
UVEL: 86.62%
VVEL: 88.04%
TEMP: 76.07%
SALT: 68.24%
SSH: 41.66%
**********5 of 5 variables failed, resulting in an overall FAIL**********

Testing complete.

I am running with the following modules loaded, and the architecture is AMD EPYC (mentioned because a thread from last April indicated that it may be an issue):

1) gcc/10.2.0 4) libfabric/1.11.0.4.71 7) xpmem/2.2.40-7.0.1.0_2.7__g1d7a24d.shasta 10) bolt/0.7 13) PrgEnv-gnu/8.0.0 16) cray-parallel-netcdf/1.12.1.3
2) craype/2.7.6 5) craype-network-ofi 8) cray-mpich/8.1.4 11) epcc-setup-env 14) cray-hdf5-parallel/1.12.0.3
3) craype-x86-rome 6) perftools-base/21.02.0 9) cray-libsci/21.04.1.1 12) load-epcc-module 15) cray-netcdf-hdf5parallel/4.7.4.3

Runs are completing fine and seemingly correctly (F2000, ETEST and B1850 runs have been verified) and the scripts_regression_test only runs into a very small issue with the exit code being returned incorrectly by slurm, so I don't know why this should be failing.

The machine configuration has been included in the maint-5.6 branch of cime as `archer2`so I will not include it here.

There is a similar thread by user Mikasa that has been posted recently, however I did not want to hijack their support request so I have made my own. The percentages seem to be in the same regions as Mikasa observed however.

Looking forward to your reply, as I can't see any indication of the source of the problem here

Just a quick note to say that like with user Mikasa in the other thread linked to in my earlier post, the POP-ECT test now runs successfully for me when I upload the previously used file, giving the output

Code:

Thanks for looking into this
