when we install the rancher backup operator , backup operator helm charts only available under the local cluster. But i have 2 separate cluster called production and dev . So after select and go to production cluster’s apps & marketplace section , backup\_operator helm chart not visible .

But thing is that same chart repository available under local cluster and production cluster.  
chart repository url : [https://git.rancher.io/charts](https://git.rancher.io/charts) branch : release-v2.5

Please let me know , how to integrate backup\_operator on production cluster and how to get backup into existent persistent volume.

this might be a misunderstanding, backup operator backs up rancher configuration only, thus you see it on local cluster, on that cluster on which rancher is running.
