This may be needed for reducing memory usage at remote storage when the order of labels in incoming samples is random. For example, if m{k1="v1",k2="v2"} may be sent as m{k2="v2",k1="v1"}Enabled sorting for labels can slow down ingestion performance a bit
-streamAggr.config string
Optional path to file with stream aggregation config. See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/stream-aggregation/ . See also -streamAggr.keepInput, -streamAggr.dropInput and -streamAggr.dedupInterval
-streamAggr.dedupInterval duration
Input samples are de-duplicated with this interval on aggregator before optional aggregation with -streamAggr.config . See also -dedup.minScrapeInterval and https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/stream-aggregation/#deduplication
-streamAggr.dropInput
Whether to drop input samples that not matching any rule in -streamAggr.config. By default, only matched raw samples are dropped, while unmatched samples are written to the remote storage. See also -streamAggr.keepInput and https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/stream-aggregation/
-streamAggr.dropInputLabels array
An optional list of labels to drop from samples for aggregator before stream de-duplication and aggregation . See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/stream-aggregation/#dropping-unneeded-labels
Supports an array of values separated by comma or specified via multiple flags.
Each array item can contain comma inside single-quoted or double-quoted string, {}, [] and () braces.
-streamAggr.enableWindows
Enables aggregation within fixed windows for all global aggregators. This allows to get more precise results, but impacts resource usage as it requires twice more memory to store two states. See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/stream-aggregation/#aggregation-windows.
-streamAggr.ignoreFirstIntervals int
Number of aggregation intervals to skip after the start for aggregator. Increase this value if you observe incorrect aggregation results after vmagent restarts. It could be caused by receiving unordered delayed data from clients pushing data into the vmagent. See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/stream-aggregation/#ignore-aggregation-intervals-on-start
-streamAggr.ignoreOldSamples
Whether to ignore input samples with old timestamps outside the current aggregation interval for aggregator. See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/stream-aggregation/#ignoring-old-samples
-streamAggr.keepInput
Whether to keep input samples that match any rule in -streamAggr.config. By default, matched raw samples are aggregated and dropped, while unmatched samples are written to the remote storage. See also -streamAggr.dropInput and https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/stream-aggregation/
-tls array
Whether to enable TLS for incoming HTTP requests at the given -httpListenAddr (aka https). -tlsCertFile and -tlsKeyFile must be set if -tls is set. See also -mtls
Supports array of values separated by comma or specified via multiple flags.
Empty values are set to false.
-tlsCertFile array
Path to file with TLS certificate for the corresponding -httpListenAddr if -tls is set. Prefer ECDSA certs instead of RSA certs as RSA certs are slower. The provided certificate file is automatically re-read every second, so it can be dynamically updated. See also -tlsAutocertHosts
Supports an array of values separated by comma or specified via multiple flags.
Each array item can contain comma inside single-quoted or double-quoted string, {}, [] and () braces.
-tlsCipherSuites array
Optional list of TLS cipher suites for incoming requests over HTTPS if -tls is set. See the list of supported cipher suites at https://pkg.go.dev/crypto/tls#pkg-constants
Supports an array of values separated by comma or specified via multiple flags.
Each array item can contain comma inside single-quoted or double-quoted string, {}, [] and () braces.
-tlsKeyFile array
Path to file with TLS key for the corresponding -httpListenAddr if -tls is set. The provided key file is automatically re-read every second, so it can be dynamically updated. See also -tlsAutocertHosts
Supports an array of values separated by comma or specified via multiple flags.
Each array item can contain comma inside single-quoted or double-quoted string, {}, [] and () braces.
-tlsMinVersion array
Optional minimum TLS version to use for the corresponding -httpListenAddr if -tls is set. Supported values: TLS10, TLS11, TLS12, TLS13
Supports an array of values separated by comma or specified via multiple flags.
Each array item can contain comma inside single-quoted or double-quoted string, {}, [] and () braces.
-usePromCompatibleNaming
Whether to replace characters unsupported by Prometheus with underscores in the ingested metric names and label names. For example, foo.bar{a.b='c'} is transformed into foo_bar{a_b='c'} during data ingestion if this flag is set. See https://prometheus.io/docs/concepts/data_model/#metric-names-and-labels
-version
Show VictoriaMetrics version
-zabbixconnector.addDuplicateTagsSeparator string
If set to non-empty value, enables merging of duplicate Zabbix tag values and set a separator for the values of these labels.
-zabbixconnector.addEmptyTagsValue string
If set to non-empty value, enables adding Zabbix tags without values to labels and set value for these labels.
-zabbixconnector.addGroupsValue string
If set to non-empty value, enables adding Zabbix host groups to labels and set value for these labels.
-zabbixconnector.maxLineLen size
The maximum length in bytes of a single line accepted by /zabbixconnector/api/v1/history
Supports the following optional suffixes for size values: KB, MB, GB, TB, KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB (default 33554432)
