  Octupole magnets have been installed for the instability damping at the J-PARC main ring. The transverse instability was observed during the injection and acceleration periods and caused the beam losses. The chromaticity tuning and bunch-by-bunch feedback system have been applied to suppress the instability. Octupole magnets were considered to create a larger amplitude dependent betatron tune shift and to supply additional option for the instability damping. The side effects of the dynamic aperture reduction and the resonances have been studied.
