Okay so, we want to have an environment using Prometheus, where we can 
monitor our servers etc with a push method rather then pull due to network 
security aspects. As of now, we managed to set up collectd together with 
collectd exporter for prometheus. This way we can have the clients or 
servers push their data to the exporter and have prometheus scrape the data 
from the exporter to minimize the amount of pulling that has to be done. 
The issue now is, we want to have multiple collectd exporters to improve 
HA, but the problem now is that in prometheus, when scraping both 
exporters, it takes the data from both. It shows for example for server A 
the cpu load but it shows it twice instead of only once because its being 
pulled from both exporters. We want to have something like this but it 
needs to have a form of deduplication so we dont have the same data twice.
