Hi, I have set up the migration tool and RTC source/target workspace. I tried to migrate a simple RTC repository as a test but it failed with the following error. What does it mean?

    _Could not initialize data area. Directory is not shared: E:\share_

I am not quite sure how this work to migrate the code to github. Is there somewhere I need to provide the github connection information? does this tool work with private enterprise github server?

@kaiilin It looks like scm can't find its metadata in E:\share_. Did you load your workspace there? scm load -r <uri> -u <username> -P <password> <TARGET_WORKSPACE>

@akoptelov Thanks. I revised to point to the right directory and it seems complete the migration process. What should I do to move it github? thanks.

@kaiilin Now you have a local git repo. You can create a new repo at GitHub and add it as a remote repository to your local one: git remote add github <github repo url> And then finally push changes to github: git push github master
