At least in our example docker-compose.yml the agent is only configured to monitor the host it's currently running on. If you wanted to collect host metrics from multiple VMs you'd need to run a copy of the agent on each host.

The agent-collector and agent-forwarder are a pair that should always be deployed together. In Kubernetes we deploy a pod containing both the collector and forwarder to each host in the cluster automatically.
