	368	+ChartMuseum is being deprecated. After the migration is complete, **all harbor charts will be removed from ChartMuseum**, and **old HTTP(S)-based chart repositories will no longer work in Rancher (for internal harbor charts)**.
	369	+)))
	370	+
	371	+There are two ways to migrate your repositories:
	372	+
	373	+1. ##Direct Transition (Editing the Existing Repository)##
	374	+1*. Change the target to “OCI Repository”.
	375	+1*. Update the URL as required (the repository name cannot be changed).
	376	+1*. After saving, installed apps will automatically start using the updated repository.
	377	+1*. (% class="box" %)
	378	+(((
	379	+Important limitation: OCI repositories must point directly to a single chart repository, not to a parent folder.
	380	+If your old repository included several charts (for example “bitbucket” and “jira”), then after switching to OCI you can only target one chart (e.g. “bitbucket”).
	381	+The other charts will no longer receive updates through this repo, and you will still need to create additional repositories for each individual chart.
	382	+)))
	383	+1. Add New Repositories One by One (Recommended), preserve the old one till the end. This approach allows a smooth transition while the old ChartMuseum repository continues to function. You can:
	384	+1*. Create a new OCI repository for each chart,
	385	+1*. Keep the old ChartMuseum repo enabled during the migration,
	386	+1*. Migrate applications gradually following the steps described here.
	387	+
	388	+This avoids disruptions and allows controlled migration.
	389	+
	390	+Special Case: Old Repo Targeting Multiple Chart Repos
	391	+
	392	+If your existing repository targets multiple chart repositories and you need the new OCI setup to behave the same way, please contact support. OCI does not support multi-chart endpoints within a single repository, and we can help you find an appropriate solution.
	393	+
	394	+To ensure a smooth transition, we recommend to **add an OCI-based repository alongside the existing ChartMuseum repository** during the migration phase. If you don't w

	400	+
	401	+| Term | Meaning
	402	+| **Old Repository** | The existing HTTP/HTTPS Harbor ChartMuseum repository.
	403	+| **New Repository** | The new OCI-based Helm chart repository created for your project (e.g. `<chart-repo-name>` in `<pkey>-helm`).
	404	+
	405	+##__**Why This Migration Is Required:**__##
	406	+
	407	+* ##ChartMuseum is deprecated and will be removed.##
	408	+* ##Applications deployed from old repos keep a reference to that repo inside their labels.##
	409	+* ##Without updating the application to point to the new OCI repo, **Rancher will not detect new chart versions from new repository**.##
	410	+
	411	+## Migration Steps:##
	412	+
	413	+1. ##Create the New OCI Repository in Rancher##
	414	+11. Go to **Apps → Repositories**.
	415	+11. Add a new repository of type **OCI**.
	416	+11. Name it similarly to your old repo name (e.g. `<chart-repo-name>-oci`). You can't name it the same.
	417	+11. Point it to the new OCI endpoint.
	418	+1. ##Disable the Old ChartMuseum Repository Temporarily##
	419	+##This step ensures that Rancher resolves charts from the new OCI repo.##
	420	+11. Go to **Apps → Repositories**.
	421	+11. Disable the old HTTP(S)-based repository.
	422	+11. Keep it disabled until the migration is done.
	423	+1. ##Update Existing Applications to Use the New OCI Repo##
	424	+Applications deployed with the old repository still contain the old repo name in their metadata. You must upgrade them once to transition.
	425	+11. Go to **Apps → Installed Apps**.
	426	+11. Open the application that was deployed using the old repo.
	427	+11. Click **Upgrade**.
	428	+11. In the list of available chart repositories (scroll to the bottom), select the **new OCI repository**.
	429	+11. Choose the chart version you want to deploy (same or newer).
	430	+11. Click **Upgrade**.
	431	+1. ##Re-enable the Old Repository (Optional) ##
	432	+If you still need the old repo for other apps, re-enable it after the migration steps above.
	433	+**Note:** Even if a newer chart version exists in the old repository, your migrated app **will not see it**, because it is no longer connected to that repo
	434	+
	435	+----
	436	+
	437	+## Reverting the Migration (If Needed)
	438	+If you want to move an app back to the old repository:##
	439	+
	440	+1. Temporarily disable the new OCI repo.
	441	+1. Enable the old ChartMuseum repo.
	442	+1. Open the application → **Upgrade**.
	443	+1. Select the chart from the old repo.
	444	+1. Save.
	445	+
	446	+This will reconnect the app to the old repository.
