It is likely this restriction will be permanent, since the most frequently used values for histograms - response times and sizes - are non-negative. There are the following possible workarounds...

Now I see your case. I need to think about how to extend histogram values into negative range. In theory it should be backwards compatible, since buckets for negative values...

The temporary workaround is to run VictoriaMetrics behind an http proxy such as nginx or [vmauth](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth.html), which would route incoming requests from `/api/v1/*` to `/select/0/prometheus/api/v1/*` according to [url paths in...

@qikiqi , thanks for the bugreport! It should be fixed in the commit c6b74148cf309dc3e57f8d48d2f15c6ca9e76771 for cluster version of VictoriaMetrics. This commit will be included in the next release. In the...

The bugfix for this issue has been included in [VictoriaMetrics v1.79.4 LTS release](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/tag/v1.79.4).

VictoriaMetrics should properly calculate `rate_over_sum(m[d])` as `sum_over_time(m[d]) / d` starting from [v1.82.0](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases). Closing the issue as fixed.

VictoriaMetrics relies on persistent storage for data integrity and durability. That's why it is recommended to store VictoriaMetrics data to [Google compute persistent disks](https://cloud.google.com/persistent-disk#section-2), which provide reasonable integrity and durability...

Important note regarding this feature request: VictoriaMetrics can detect some corrupted data right now during decompression, decoding and sanity checking of the data read from disk. But it **cannot fix...

FYI, VictoriaMetrics validates the correctness of timestamps stored on disk while performing [background merge](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#storage) starting from [v1.82.0](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases). This should help detecting the corruption of timestamps stored on disk. VictoriaMetrics logs...
