Maximum duration before timing out read of the request, and closing idle connections.
Maximum number of simultaneous connections.
The URL under which Prometheus is externally reachable (for example, if Prometheus is served via a reverse proxy). Used for generating relative and absolute links back to Prometheus itself. If the URL has a path portion, it will be used to prefix all HTTP endpoints served by Prometheus. If omitted, relevant URL components will be derived automatically.
Prefix for the internal routes of web endpoints. Defaults to path of --web.external-url.
Path to static asset/templates directory.
Path to user asset directory, available at /user.
Enable shutdown and reload via HTTP request.
Enable API endpoints for admin control actions.
Path to the console template directory, available at /consoles.
Path to the console library directory.
Document title of Prometheus instance.
Base path for metrics storage.
[DEPRECATED] How long to retain samples in storage. This flag has been deprecated, use "storage.tsdb.retention.time" instead
How long to retain samples in storage. Overrides "storage.tsdb.retention" if this flag is set to anything other than default.
[EXPERIMENTAL] Maximum number of bytes that can be stored for blocks. Units supported: KB, MB, GB, TB, PB. This flag is experimental and can be changed in future releases.
Create a lockfile in data directory.

Minimum duration between alert and restored 'for' state. This is maintained only for alerts with configured 'for' time greater than grace period.
Minimum amount of time to wait before resending an alert to Alertmanager.
The capacity of the queue for pending Alertmanager notifications.
Timeout for sending alerts to Alertmanager.
The delta difference allowed for retrieving metrics during expression evaluations.
Maximum time a query may take before being aborted.
Maximum number of queries executed concurrently.
Maximum number of samples a single query can load into memory. Note that queries will fail if they would load more samples than this into memory, so this also limits the number of samples a query can return.
Regex for CORS origin. It is fully anchored. Eg. 'https?://(domain1|domain2).com'
Only log messages with the given severity or above. One of: [debug, info, warn, error]
