Hey,
I created an external location in my test environment using a mount point . Now, when I try to create the same external location in prod, it doesn’t allow me to use the same name. Is there any specific reason for this restriction in Unity Catalog?
Additionally, if I rename the external location in test, what will be the impact? Will I need to manually update all references like schemas, tables, pipelines, and access permissions?
Looking forward to your insights and best practices. Thanks in advance
