@adamcarter81 - Not sure what exactly you are referring to here. Below is from my quick test.
telegraf version : 1.18.0 ----> (built off of commit - ac5c7f6a) [ This is the version we use in our last shipped azure monitor container insights agent]

Please ensure metric_version = 2, as all the schema changes are in v2 that we introduced some time back. Please let us know if you need any help.

Hi @vishiy - thanks for the reply. Where do I set metric_version = 2?
The issue I have is the redis stats from (https://github.com/oliver006/redis_exporter) are not being processed by OMS - the log when scraping the redis exporter is:

2021-11-09T13:29:00Z E! [inputs.prometheus] Error in plugin: error reading metrics for http://15.0.0.62:15020/stats/prometheus: reading text format failed: text format parsing error in line 699: invalid metric name

So no redis stats ever get uploaded to Azure, but Prometheus does scrape them ok, I can query them there and see them just fine. My troubleshooting lead me to believe it was an issue in Telegraaf, but this might not be right

Thanks
