There was a problem hiding this comment.
Could you help me understand #1648? the author configured a separate datasource with type: prometheus and pointed it to:
http://victorialogs:9428/select/vmalert
So Grafana should treat it as a Prometheus datasource and request both /api/v1/status/buildinfo and /api/v1/rules. Based on the report, the rules request returns 200, while the buildinfo request is forwarded to vmalert and returns 400.
So as you said we need to verify the datasource UID in the failing Grafana request. If it matches victorialogs-vmalert, then the Grafana datasource-ID limitation does not apply to this setup, and #1648 is a separate buildinfo compatibility issue, yeah?
