Where to move cluster-init scripts after latest message (Storing initialization scripts on DBFS is being deprecated. We recommend using a different storage location)?

Recently Databricks has started showing "Storing initialization scripts on DBFS is being deprecated. We recommend using a different storage location" . Is there an alternative of still keep using DBFS or do we need to move to ABSFS ? I could not find any link having more details. What about already set up init file. It will be a re-work to move all? Please advise.

Hi, Legacy global init scripts and cluster-named init scripts are deprecated and cannot be used in new workspaces starting February 21, 2023. However, global and cluster-scoped init scripts can be used.

You can put init scripts in a cloud storage directory accessible by a cluster.

Assuming you are using Azure Databricks cluster, you can refer to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/databricks/clusters/init-scripts#cluster-scoped-init-scripts

Please let us know if this helps.

It is suggested that we can use Workspace but databricks CLI not supporting importing shell scripts, but we can import shell script using web page?
