   --influx-CA-file value                      Optional path to TLS CA file to use for verifying connections to -influx-addr. By default, system CA is used
   --influx-server-name value                  Optional TLS server name to use for connections to -influx-addr. By default, the server name from -influx-addr is used

   --vm-addr value                             VictoriaMetrics address to perform import requests. 
      Should be the same as --httpListenAddr value for single-node version or vminsert component. 
      When importing into the clustered version do not forget to set additionally --vm-account-id flag. 
      Please note, that vmctl performs initial readiness check for the given address by checking /health endpoint. (default: "http://localhost:8428")
   --vm-user value        VictoriaMetrics username for basic auth [$VM_USERNAME]
   --vm-password value    VictoriaMetrics password for basic auth [$VM_PASSWORD]
   --vm-account-id value  AccountID is an arbitrary 32-bit integer identifying namespace for data ingestion (aka tenant). 
      AccountID is required when importing into the clustered version of VictoriaMetrics. 
      It is possible to set it as accountID:projectID, where projectID is also arbitrary 32-bit integer. 
      If projectID isn't set, then it equals to 0
   --vm-concurrency value                             Number of workers concurrently performing import requests to VM (default: 2)

   --vm-significant-figures value                     The number of significant figures to leave in metric values before importing. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_figures. Zero value saves all the significant figures. This option may be used for increasing on-disk compression level for the stored metrics. See also --vm-round-digits option (default: 0)
   --vm-round-digits value                            Round metric values to the given number of decimal digits after the point. This option may be used for increasing on-disk compression level for the stored metrics. See also --vm-significant-figures option (default: 100)
   --vm-extra-label value [ --vm-extra-label value ]  Extra labels, that will be added to imported timeseries. In case of collision, label value defined by flag will have priority. Flag can be set multiple times, to add few additional labels.
   --vm-rate-limit value                              Optional data transfer rate limit in bytes per second.
      By default, the rate limit is disabled. It can be useful for limiting load on configured via '--vm-addr' destination. (default: 0)
   --vm-cert-file value             Optional path to client-side TLS certificate file to use when connecting to '--vm-addr'
   --vm-key-file value              Optional path to client-side TLS key to use when connecting to '--vm-addr'
   --vm-CA-file value               Optional path to TLS CA file to use for verifying connections to '--vm-addr'. By default, system CA is used

   --vm-insecure-skip-verify        Whether to skip tls verification when connecting to '--vm-addr' (default: false)
   --vm-backoff-retries value       How many import retries to perform before giving up. (default: 10)
   --vm-backoff-factor value        Factor to multiply the base duration after each failed import retry. Must be greater than 1.0 (default: 1.8)
   --vm-backoff-min-duration value  Minimum duration to wait before the first import retry. Each subsequent import retry will be multiplied by the '--vm-backoff-factor'. (default: 2s)
