If you are using chunks storage on a previous version, you must [migrate your data](https://github.com/cortexproject/cortex/blob/v1.11.1/docs/blocks-storage/migrate-from-chunks-to-blocks.md) on version 1.12 or earlier. Before upgrading to this release, you should also remove any deprecated chunks-related configuration, as this release will no longer accept that. The following flags are gone:
