## tip
* FEATURE: all VictoriaMetrics [enterprise](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise/) components: add support for automatic issuing of TLS certificates for HTTPS server at `-httpListenAddr` via [Let's Encrypt service](https://letsencrypt.org/). See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#automatic-issuing-of-tls-certificates) and [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5949).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent/): support [DNS SRV](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRV_record) addresses in `-remoteWrite.url` command-line option and in scrape target urls. For example, `-remoteWrite.url=http://srv+victoria-metrics/api/v1/write` automatically resolves the `victoria-metrics` DNS SRV to a list of hostnames with TCP ports and then sends the collected metrics to these TCP addresses. See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent/#srv-urls) and [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/6053).
* FEATURE: [vmauth](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth/): support automatic discovering and load balancing for TCP addresses behind DNS SRV addresses. These addresses can be put inside `url_prefix` urls in the form `http://srv+addr/path`, where the `addr` is the [DNS SRV](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SRV_record) address, which is automatically resolved to hostnames with TCP ports. See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth/#srv-urls) for details.
* FEATURE: [vmauth](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth/): support specifying client TLS certificates and TLS ServerName for requests to HTTPS backends. See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmauth/#backend-tls-setup).

## Automatic issuing of TLS certificates
All the VictoriaMetrics [Enterprise](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise/) components support automatic issuing of TLS certificates for public HTTPS server running at `-httpListenAddr`
via [Let's Encrypt service](https://letsencrypt.org/). The following command-line flags must be set in order to enable automatic issuing of TLS certificates:
- `-httpListenAddr` must be set for listening TCP port `443`. For example, `-httpListenAddr=:443`. This port must be accessible by the [Let's Encrypt service](https://letsencrypt.org/).
- `-tls` must be set in order to accept HTTPS requests at `-httpListenAddr`.
- `-tlsAutocertHosts` must be set to comma-separated list of hosts, which can be reached via `-httpListenAddr`. TLS certificates are automatically issued for these hosts.
- `-tlsAutocertEmail` must be set to contact email for the issued TLS certificates.
- `-tlsAutocertCacheDir` may be set to the directory path for persisting the issued TLS certificates between VictoriaMetrics restarts. If this flag isn't set,
then TLS certificates are re-issued on every restart.
This functionality can be evaluated for free according to [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise/).

## Automatic issuing of TLS certificates
All the VictoriaMetrics [Enterprise](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise/) components support automatic issuing of TLS certificates for public HTTPS server running at `-httpListenAddr`
via [Let's Encrypt service](https://letsencrypt.org/). The following command-line flags must be set in order to enable automatic issuing of TLS certificates:
- `-httpListenAddr` must be set for listening TCP port `443`. For example, `-httpListenAddr=:443`. This port must be accessible by the [Let's Encrypt service](https://letsencrypt.org/).
- `-tls` must be set in order to accept HTTPS requests at `-httpListenAddr`.
- `-tlsAutocertHosts` must be set to comma-separated list of hosts, which can be reached via `-httpListenAddr`. TLS certificates are automatically issued for these hosts.
- `-tlsAutocertEmail` must be set to contact email for the issued TLS certificates.
- `-tlsAutocertCacheDir` may be set to the directory path for persisting the issued TLS certificates between VictoriaMetrics restarts. If this flag isn't set,
then TLS certificates are re-issued on every restart.
This functionality can be evaluated for free according to [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/enterprise/).

Optional HTTP extraHeaders to send with each request to the corresponding -datasource.url.

Multiple headers must be delimited by '^^': -datasource.headers='header1:value1^^header2:value2'
-datasource.lookback duration
Will be deprecated soon, please adjust "-search.latencyOffset" at datasource side or specify "latency_offset" in rule group's params. Lookback defines how far into the past to look when evaluating queries. For example, if the datasource.lookback=5m then param "time" with value now()-5m will be added to every query.
