vCenter 6.5U2, Grafan 7.0, InfluxDB 1.8 and Telegraf 1.16

Hi Guys, I am not sure if it is a right place to post a question. However, It can be relocated to a appropriate category.

I am setting up Grafana Dashboard to view graphs and charts once Telegraf transfers time series data into InfluxDB. All are running inside docker containers.

I have attached screenshot of Telegraf.conf file. When i run the command ,  I have the following output.

root@ubuntuhost:/var/lib/docker/volumes/telegraf-storage/_data# docker run -v $PWD/telegraf.conf:/etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf:ro telegraf:1.16

It remains at Starting Plugin. On Grafana dashboard, it shows stats of only hosts while i have two hosts in the test environment.  

I could not find anything meaningful inside Telegraf log as well if typed "docker logs --detail containerid".
