Research direction

Start by reading the linked MOSART issue #47 and inspect RTM's off test, especially its RTM_MODE=NULL handling. Then trace how RTM behaves with CLM_ACCELERATED_SPINUP=on under the NUOPC driver; done means the accelerated-spinup configuration reliably turns RTM off without relying on an unsupported namelist item.

Description

enhancement question

I think RTM likely has a similar problem as MOSART does

https://github.com/ESCOMP/MOSART/issues/47

It looks like the RTM off test works as it sets RTM_MODE to NULL. But, I'm not sure that RTM is going to work when CLM_ACCELERATED_SPINUP is on, as it will try to turn itself off with a namelist item. I don't think that namelist item will work with the NUOPC driver.

So similar changes as were done in MOSART should likely be done for RTM.
