 * BUGFIX: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): prevent from `FATAL: cannot flush metainfo` panic when [`-remoteWrite.multitenantURL`](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html#multitenancy) command-line flag is set. See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5357).
 * BUGFIX: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): properly decode zstd-encoded data blocks received via [VictoriaMetrics remote_write protocol](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html#victoriametrics-remote-write-protocol). See [this issue comment](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5301#issuecomment-1815871992).
-* BUGFIX:  [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): properly add new labels at `output_relabel_configs` during [stream aggregation](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/stream-aggregation.html). Previously this could lead to corrupted labels in output samples. Thanks to @ChengChung for providing [detailed report for this bug](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5402).

Previously, test cases with `eval_time`  not being a multiple of `evaluation_interval` would fail.

+### Limitations
+
+* vmalert-tool evaluates all the groups defined in `rule_files` using `evaluation_interval`(default `1m`) instead of `interval` under each rule group.
+* vmalert-tool shares the same limitation with [vmalert](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmalert.html#limitations) on chaining rules under one group:
+
+>by default, rules execution is sequential within one group, but persistence of execution results to remote storage is asynchronous. Hence, user shouldn’t rely on chaining of recording rules when result of previous recording rule is reused in the next one;
+
+For example, you have recording rule A and alerting rule B in the same group, and rule B's expression is based on A's results.
+Rule B won't get the latest data of A, since data didn't persist to remote storage yet. 
+The workaround is to divide them in two groups and put groupA in front of groupB (or use `group_eval_order` to define the evaluation order).
+In this way, vmalert-tool makes sure that the results of groupA must be written to storage before evaluating groupB:
+
+```yaml
+groups:
+- name: groupA
+  rules:
+  - record: A
+    expr: sum(xxx)
+- name: groupB
+  rules:
+  - alert: B
+    expr: A >= 0.75
+    for: 1m 
+```

 ### Test file format
 
 The configuration format for files specified in `--files` cmd-line flag is the following:
