Unable to migrate a Linux machine from vmware to openstack #99

We are using the migratekit CLI for the migration from vmware to openstack
vmware version 7.0
Linux: Oracle linux 9
Openstack version : wallaby

I am using docker containers for this migration using the migration kit. vm is running on vcenter which is created under a datacenter named "DC1"->"Rack1"->"Location"->"vm-name". when i try to give this path it gives me an error "Error: please specify a datacenter"

Below is the command used :

docker run -it --rm --privileged --network host -v /dev:/dev -v /vmware-vix-disklib-distrib:/usr/lib64/vmware-vix-disklib:ro --env-file <(env | grep OS_) ghcr.io/vexxhost/migratekit:main migrate --vmware-endpoint 192.168.1.1 --vmware-username svc_Account --vmware-password --vmware-path '/DC1/Rack1/Location/migration-vm'

however, the path (/ha-datacenter/vm/vm-1) works with the host endpoint but not with the vcenter endpoint. Any thoughts
