> When looking in the HMS database we found:
> {code}
> SELECT "NAME", "DB_LOCATION_URI" FROM "DBS" WHERE NOT "DB_LOCATION_URI" LIKE 'hdfs://%/%';
> NAME | DB_LOCATION_URI 
> -----------+--------------------
> db_name | hdfs://nameservice1
> (1 row)
> {code}
> Fixed by manually updating the HMS DB:
> {code}
> UPDATE DBS
> SET DB_LOCATION_URI='hdfs://nameservice1/user/hive/warehouse/db_name.db'
> WHERE DB_ID=12345;
> {code}
> We should handle this more gracefully in Sentry.
