+ initialize plugins configurations for all given config files that can
+ be found in shared configs directory and may fail if some dependency
+ is missing).*

+ If `DPDK` or `RDT` can't be installed on host, then corresponding config
+ files should be removed from shared configuration directory
+ (`<BAROMETER_REPO_DIR>/src/collectd/collectd_sample_configs/`) prior
+ to starting barometer-collectd container. By example: in case of missing
+ `DPDK` functionality on the host, `dpdkstat.conf` and `dpdkevents.conf`
+ should be removed.

Sample configurations can be found at:
