 ## v1.87.x long-time support release (LTS)
 
+* BUGFIX: `vmstorage`: added missing `-inmemoryDataFlushInterval` command-line flag, which was missing in [VictoriaMetrics cluster](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.html) after implementing [this feature](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3337) in [v1.85.0](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/releases/tag/v1.85.0).
 * BUGFIX: [MetricsQL](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html): properly handle queries, which wrap [rollup functions](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html#rollup-functions) with multiple arguments without explicitly specified lookbehind window in square brackets into [aggregate functions](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html#aggregate-functions). For example, `sum(quantile_over_time(0.5, process_resident_memory_bytes))` was resulting to `expecting at least 2 args to ...; got 1 args' error. Thanks to @atykhyy for [the pull request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5414).
