Description

ADF run type

Model vs. Model

What happened?

There seem to be a number of times with overwrite = false or redo = false seems to be ignored (or not used efficiently) in the clm_diags branch. Is this something that's been fixed on main, or can they be used more effectively to speed up debugging?

ADF Hash you are using

v0.11-576-gb46ed6f2

What machine were you running the ADF on?

CGD machine, CISL machine

What python environment were you using?

ADF-provided Conda env

Extra info

I'll fill out more when I'm less frusterated. Namely it seems like time series are always being overwritten, even when they already exist, but plotting features take longer than expected with they already exist?

Research direction

The issue names the clm_diags branch and the overwrite and redo options, but no source file or test. Reproduce the behavior with the reported ADF hash and existing time-series and plotting outputs, then trace how those options are handled. Done means existing results are reused when the options are false, without preventing required updates.
