**Update notes:** this release introduces backwards-incompatible changes to `vm_partial_results_total` metric by changing its labels to be consistent with `vm_requests_total` metric. **Update note1:** this release introduces backwards-incompatible changes to `vm_partial_results_total` metric by changing its labels to be consistent with `vm_requests_total` metric. If you use alerting rules or Grafana dashboards, which rely on this metric, then they must be updated. The official dashboards for VictoriaMetrics don't use this metric.
If you use alerting rules or Grafana dashboards, which rely on this metric, then they must be updated. The official dashboards for VictoriaMetrics don't use this metric. **Update note2:** [vmalert](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html) adds `/vmalert/` prefix to [web urls](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html#web) according to [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2825). This may affect `vmalert` instances with non-empty `-http.pathPrefix` command-line flag. After the update, configuring this flag is no longer needed. Here's [why](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2799#issuecomment-1171392005).
[vmalert](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html) routing was updated according to [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2825).
The change may affect users with `-http.pathPrefix` flag configured for vmalert. With the update, configuring this flag is no longer needed. Here's [why](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2799#issuecomment-1171392005).
* CHANGE: [vmalert](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html): deprecate alert's status link `/api/v1/<groupID>/<alertID>/status` in favour of `api/v1/alert?group_id=<group_id>&alert_id=<alert_id>"`.
The old alert's status link will be still supported for a few versions but will be removed in the future.
* FEATURE: [vmalert](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html): deprecate alert's status link `/api/v1/<groupID>/<alertID>/status` in favour of `api/v1/alert?group_id=<group_id>&alert_id=<alert_id>"`. The old alert's status link is still supported, but will be removed in future releases. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2825).
* FEATURE: [cluster version of VictoriaMetrics](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.html): add support for querying lower-level `vmselect` nodes from upper-level `vmselect` nodes. This makes possible to build multi-level cluster setups for global querying view and HA purposes without the need to use [Promxy](https://github.com/jacksontj/promxy). See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.html#multi-level-cluster-setup) and [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2778). * FEATURE: [cluster version of VictoriaMetrics](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.html): add support for querying lower-level `vmselect` nodes from upper-level `vmselect` nodes.

* FEATURE: [vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#vmui): add an UI for [query tracing](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#query-tracing). It can be enabled by clicking `trace query` checkbox and re-running the query.
