so up to 2 `vmstorage` nodes can be lost without data loss. The minimum number of `vmstorage` nodes should be equal to `2*3-1 = 5`, so when 2 `vmstorage` nodes are lost,
the remaining 3 `vmstorage` nodes could provide the `-replicationFactor=3` for newly ingested data.
When the replication is enabled, `-replicationFactor=N` and `-dedup.minScrapeInterval=1ms` command-line flag must be passed to `vmselect` nodes.
The `-replicationFactor=N` improves query performance when up to `N-1` vmstorage nodes respond slowly and/or temporarily unavailable, since `vmselect` doesn't wait for responses from up to `N-1` `vmstorage` nodes. Sometimes `-replicationFactor` at `vmselect` nodes can result in partial responses. See [this issues](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/1207) for details.

The `-dedup.minScrapeInterval=1ms` de-duplicates replicated data during queries. If duplicate data is pushed to VictoriaMetrics from identically configured [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html) instances or Prometheus instances, then the `-dedup.minScrapeInterval` must be set to bigger values according to [deduplication docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Single-server-VictoriaMetrics.html#deduplication).
Note that [replication doesn't save from disaster](https://medium.com/@valyala/speeding-up-backups-for-big-time-series-databases-533c1a927883),
