An Octa-Chain graph (OCm) is a graph formed by modifying the cycle graph C8 by adding an edge connecting the midpoints in C8. The minimum number of colors used to color the vertices in a graph so that every two vertices have a rainbow path is called the rainbow vertex-connected number denoted by rvc (G). While the minimum number of colors used to color the vertices in a graph so that every two vertices are always connected by a rainbow path is called a strong rainbow vertex connected number and is denoted by srvc (G). This study aims to determine the rainbow vertex-connected number (rvc) and the strong rainbow-vertex-connected number (srvc) in the Octa-Chain graph (OCm). The results obtained from this research are the rainbow vertex-connected number rvc (OCm)=2m and the strong rainbow-vertex-connected number srvc (OCm)=2m.
