See the docs at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/cluster-victoriametrics/ .
-blockcache.missesBeforeCaching int
The number of cache misses before putting the block into cache. Higher values may reduce indexdb/dataBlocks cache size at the cost of higher CPU and disk read usage (default 2)
-cacheDataPath string
Path to directory for cache files and temporary query results. By default, the cache won't be persisted, and temporary query results will be placed under /tmp/searchResults. If set, the cache will be persisted under cacheDataPath/rollupResult, and temporary query results will be placed under cacheDataPath/tmp/searchResults.

-http.shutdownDelay duration
Optional delay before http server shutdown. During this delay, the server returns non-OK responses from /health page, so load balancers can route new requests to other servers

-search.maxBinaryOpPushdownLabelValues int
The maximum number of values for a label in the first expression that can be extracted as a common label filter and pushed down to the second expression in a binary operation. A larger value makes the pushed-down filter more complex but fewer time series will be returned. This flag is useful when selective label (e.g., 'instance') contains numerous values, and storage resources are abundant. (default 100)

-search.maxWorkersPerQuery int
The maximum number of CPU cores a single query can use. The default value should work good for most cases. The flag can be set to lower values for improving performance of big number of concurrently executed queries. The flag can be set to bigger values for improving performance of heavy queries, which scan big number of time series (>10K) and/or big number of samples (>100M). There is no sense in setting this flag to values bigger than the number of CPU cores available on the system (default netstorage.defaultMaxWorkersPerQuery())
-search.minStalenessInterval duration
The minimum interval for staleness calculations. This flag could be useful for removing gaps on graphs generated from time series with irregular intervals between samples. See also '-search.maxStalenessInterval'

Expiry duration for caching tenants in memory. A zero value disables caching, causing tenants to be fetched from storage nodes on every query. (default 5m0s)
-search.treatDotsAsIsInRegexps
Whether to treat dots as is in regexp label filters used in queries. For example, foo{bar=~"a.b.c"} will be automatically converted to foo{bar=~"a\\.b\\.c"}, i.e. all the dots in regexp filters will be automatically escaped in order to match only dot char instead of matching any char. Dots in ".+", ".*" and ".{n}" regexps aren't escaped. This option is DEPRECATED in favor of {__graphite__="a.*.c"} syntax for selecting metrics matching the given Graphite metrics filter
-secret.flags array
Comma-separated list of flag names with secret values. Values for these flags are hidden in logs and on /metrics page
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.
-selectNode array
A list of vmselect node addresses to propagate the '/internal/resetRollupResultCache' call. If this flag isn't set, then cache need to be purged from each vmselect individually. Comma-separated addresses of vmselect nodes; usage: -selectNode=vmselect-host1,...,vmselect-hostN
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.
-storageNode array
Comma-separated addresses of vmstorage nodes; usage: -storageNode=vmstorage-host1,...,vmstorage-hostN . Enterprise version of VictoriaMetrics supports automatic discovery of vmstorage addresses via DNS SRV records. For example, -storageNode=srv+vmstorage.addrs . See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/victoriametrics/cluster-victoriametrics/#automatic-vmstorage-discovery
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.
-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.

-vmalert.proxyURL string
Optional URL for proxying requests to vmalert. For example, if -vmalert.proxyURL=http://vmalert:8880 , then alerting API requests such as /api/v1/rules from Grafana will be proxied to http://vmalert:8880/api/v1/rules
-vmstorageDialTimeout duration
Timeout for establishing RPC connections from vmselect to vmstorage. See also -vmstorageUserTimeout (default 3s)
-vmstorageUserTimeout duration
Network timeout for RPC connections from vmselect to vmstorage (Linux only). Lower values reduce the maximum query durations when some vmstorage nodes become unavailable because of networking issues. Read more about TCP_USER_TIMEOUT at https://blog.cloudflare.com/when-tcp-sockets-refuse-to-die/ . See also -vmstorageDialTimeout (default 3s)
-vmui.customDashboardsPath string
Optional path to vmui dashboards. See https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/tree/master/app/vmui/packages/vmui/public/dashboards
-vmui.defaultTimezone string
The default timezone to be used in vmui. Timezone must be a valid IANA Time Zone. For example: America/New_York, Europe/Berlin, Etc/GMT+3 or Local
