Lineage is not visible for old Hive Table in Atlas

[#1]

Hello Team ,

We are using HDP-3.1.0

We have executed import-hive.sh script to import already existing hive tables in Atlas. It got successfully executed. Now we can see all hive databases and tables in Atlas, but we are not able to see data linage of that imported tables.

If we create external table on any hdfs path then we can see lineage in Atlas.

Also, If we create any managed tables in Atlas, we are not able to see lineage of that old tables. But we still can see lineage of that new tables. 

Why we are not getting lineage of older tables?

Please suggest. We are stuck now.

Thanks,

If you import the Hive table through a script, the lineage data will not be visible. To view the lineage data, your metadata must sync automatically.
