Does DBR 14.3 not support Describe history command?

Hello, We have recently updated DBR version from 9.1 LTS to 14.3 LTS and observed that DESCRIBE HISTORY is not supported in 14.3 LTS. Could you please suggest any alternative to be used for table history?

Hello, I've just tested it on a 14.3LTS cluster and it worked. There's no deprecation notes in the docs either. 

What error are you getting? Can you share a screenshot and full cluster config?

I think it is a problem with worker type. It is working fine in Standard_DS4_v2 but not in Standard_DS3_v2.

Hi, I'm still not able to recreate this issue with Standard_DS3_v2.

I'm not sure if this is relevant, but do you also have this issue on an old High Concurrency cluster with custom access mode for the Standard_DS3_v2 cluster too?
