Doc Type: Enhancement
Doc Text:
With this enhancement, you can configure the format of the plugin instance for the collectd virt plugin by using the `ExtraConfig` parameter `collectd::plugin::virt::plugin_instance_format`. This allows more granular metadata to be exposed in the metrics label for virtual machine instances, such as on which host the instance is running.

Description Leif Madsen 2020-09-11 14:47:32 UTC 
Currently it is not possible to specify the PluginInstanceFormat parameter to the collectd virt plugin, which would allow knowing the available instance (virtual machines) UUID, name, metadata, etc.
Comment 3 Leif Madsen 2020-09-18 18:59:49 UTC 
This is merged upstream, and ready for import. PR is linked.
Comment 4 Leif Madsen 2020-09-19 17:08:51 UTC 
Released upstream in puppet-collectd 12.1.0.
Comment 5 Leif Madsen 2020-09-19 17:09:35 UTC 
Oops, released upstream puppet-collectd 12.2.0.

Exception + flag given
Comment 16 Leif Madsen 2021-01-11 20:19:03 UTC 
Testing should be as simple as adding the collectd::plugin::virt::plugin_instance_format configuration to the ExtraConfig of the stf-connections.yaml file.

```
ExtraConfig:
    collectd::plugin::virt::plugin_instance_format: name
```

Values that are valid:

- name
- uuid
- metadata

Once enabled and deployed look at the collectd_virt module in Prometheus and note that the `plugin_instance` label for returned values is no longer `base` but should be name of the virtual machine or similar.

A virtual machine must be created on the OpenStack project for any statistics to be returned. (Run InfraRed workload plugin or otherwise.)
