Issue with Direct Migration from Glue Catalog to Hive Metastore

[sbellary-chc]

We have a Glue catalog in our dev aws account and now i am trying to migrate this Glue Catalog to Hive Metastore of an EMR Cluster (I need to do this to replace Hive Metastore content with Glue Catalog metadata so that I can track our Glue Catalog Data lineage using Apache Atlas installed on the EMR cluster).

I followed all the steps and procedures to Directly Migrate Glue Catalog to Hive Metastore but i am getting the _Duplicate entry 'default' for key 'UNIQUEDATABASE' error everytime and i have tried various iterations but still keep getting the same errors when i run the Glue ETL job. See the full error message below:

So as per the migration procedure, we need to provide "--database-names" parameter values as key pairs so I tried specifying the list of databases separated by a semi-colon(;) first and also tried specifying just one database like "default" but none of this works. The above error was thrown when I used just the default database.

Is anyone familiar with this error? is there any work around to this issue? Please let me know if I am missing something. Any help is appreciated.
