If you are using a released version of Kubernetes, you should refer to the docs that go with that version.
The latest release of this document can be found [here](http://releases.k8s.io/release-1.1/docs/admin/kube-scheduler.md).Documentation for other releases can be found at releases.k8s.io.
The Kubernetes scheduler is a policy-rich, topology-aware, workload-specific function that significantly impacts availability, performance, and capacity. The scheduler needs to take into account individual and collective resource requirements, quality of service requirements, hardware/software/policy constraints, affinity and anti-affinity specifications, data locality, inter-workload interference, deadlines, and so on. Workload-specific requirements will be exposed through the API as necessary.
kube-scheduler
--address=0.0.0.0: The IP address to serve on (set to 0.0.0.0 for all interfaces)
--algorithm-provider="DefaultProvider": The scheduling algorithm provider to use, one of: DefaultProvider
--bind-pods-burst=100: Number of bindings per second scheduler is allowed to make during bursts
--bind-pods-qps=50: Number of bindings per second scheduler is allowed to continuously make
--google-json-key="": The Google Cloud Platform Service Account JSON Key to use for authentication.
--kube-api-burst=100: Burst to use while talking with kubernetes apiserver
--kube-api-qps=50: QPS to use while talking with kubernetes apiserver
--kubeconfig="": Path to kubeconfig file with authorization and master location information.
--leader-elect[=false]: Start a leader election client and gain leadership before executing scheduler loop. Enable this when running replicated schedulers.
--leader-elect-lease-duration=15s: The duration that non-leader candidates will wait after observing a leadership renewal until attempting to acquire leadership of a led but unrenewed leader slot. This is effectively the maximum duration that a leader can be stopped before it is replaced by another candidate. This is only applicable if leader election is enabled.
--leader-elect-renew-deadline=10s: The interval between attempts by the acting master to renew a leadership slot before it stops leading. This must be less than or equal to the lease duration. This is only applicable if leader election is enabled.
--leader-elect-retry-period=2s: The duration the clients should wait between attempting acquisition and renewal of a leadership. This is only applicable if leader election is enabled.
--log-flush-frequency=5s: Maximum number of seconds between log flushes
--master="": The address of the Kubernetes API server (overrides any value in kubeconfig)
--policy-config-file="": File with scheduler policy configuration
--port=10251: The port that the scheduler's http service runs on
--profiling[=true]: Enable profiling via web interface host:port/debug/pprof/
--scheduler-name="default-scheduler": Name of the scheduler, used to select which pods will be processed by this scheduler, based on pod's annotation with key 'scheduler.alpha.kubernetes.io/name'
