Breaking Changes

ZBXNEXT-8087

Important! Template nesting support changes in Zabbix 6.4.0rc1 have been reverted. If you upgraded to Zabbix 6.4.0rc1, a DB patch converted all nested templates into a flat template structure, where all entities from the nested templates were transferred to the parent template. Template nesting support has been fully restored in Zabbix 6.4.0rc2. If you have already upgraded to Zabbix 6.4.0rc1, the previously existing nested template structure will not be recovered. Therefore, upgrading to Zabbix 6.4.0rc1 is not recommended for installations with template nesting.
