^{Originally posted by **s4ndalHat** September 27, 2024} Hello everyone, Recently, we migrated our harbor instances across different cluster, and after migration, all scheduled retention policies stopped wotking.. I've looked at some issue on the repo, and the workaround is to force update the schedule of retention policies from the Harbor UI. However, having almost 100 projects, it's plenty of manual operations to do, so I'm asking if there is an easy way to do it. Harbor version: 2.0.2 installed by helm chart Kubernetes version: 1.26.3 Thank you

Hi @s4ndalHat,

I've converted this into an issue. Could you please provide more details?

• Did you migrate your Harbor instance from an older version to v2.0.2? If so, what was the previous version?
• When you mention that the policies stopped working, were they changed to a "disabled" status? And by "force update," do you mean re-enabling the policies?

I also suggest creating a sample automation script to manage this by calling the Harbor API. Additionally, please note that Harbor v2.0 is no longer supported. I recommend upgrading to the latest version or at least v2.10+.

Hi @wy65701436 ,

• I migrate the harbor instance from two different clusters, but with the same version.
• The scheduled policies didn't work anymore, and they weren't disabled at the UI but still scheduled as daily cron.

By force update, i mean change the configured schedule "Daily" to "Weekly" then configured back to "Daily".

An update will be planned on this particular instance, but at the moment we would want to solve it first...
