Issue with Updating Dashboards During Assessment Using UCX

Reply_Domenico

Hello everyone,

I am using UCX for the migration to Unity, and I've noticed that re-running the assessment does not update the dashboards with jobs that are incompatible with Unity. To get the dashboards updated, I had to uninstall and reinstall UCX, which seems like a cumbersome workaround.

Additionally, I created specific jobs to test a potential solution to an incompatibility related to the failure “Uses Azure service principal credentials config in Job cluster.” I also cloned an incompatible job to test the refresh of the assessment. However, both jobs did not appear in the new assessment results until after I reinstalled UCX.

Is there a better solution to ensure that the dashboards reflect the latest assessment results without having to reinstall UCX each time?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,

Domenico

Hi,

I am having a similar issue as Domenico. I have installed UCX in my workspace and ran the UCX_assesment job 3 days back. It created crawl_table.log which showed that UCX had scanned through all of my legacy hive_metastore schemas and listed the tables. However, I have newly created a few more tables, views and UDFs after this. Now when I am re-running the UCX_assesment job, although it is successfully running, but the dashboard is not getting updated with the latest objects.

Does UCX needs to be reinstalled to generate the list of new objects in my hive_metastore. Please note that the new run logs do not show any schema scanning.
