Issue/Introduction

We keep getting alarms like this since I moved one of our vcenters to a new copy of the vmware probe.

The Baseline transform failed to resolve the metric instance id for the monitor instance named: "ESC:VM_CPU_AGGREGATE:"."costop" for probe: /BCBSTdom/TER_hub_VMWP2_2450/TER_hub_VMWP2_2450/vmware

The Baseline transform failed to update the metric instance id from: [/BCBSTdom/TER_hub_VMWP_2454/TER_hub_VMWP_2454/vmware:idsProbe:pdrvcenter:4c4c4544-0056-4e10-8042-b8c04f343832:Memory, "ESC:HOST_MEMORY:"."usage"] to: UnknownMetricInstanceID on for probe: /BCBSTdom/TER_hub_VMWP_2454/TER_hub_VMWP_2454/vmware.
