I'm not familiar with nova-diagnostics, but we use collectd to gather
information about each virtual machine running in KVM. We get information
about cpu usage, memory, disk io, and network io per instance. Obviously
it's not nicely integrated with nova commands, but it works in our
deployments. And it comes in the distro by default.

Let me know if I can help you in this blueprint: the only reason now in our
distro to use collectd is kvm instances performance. If we can get from
nova we should go that way in the future.

Cheers
Diego
