Currently the default behaviour is to generate a new, random peer name on every startup. It might be desired to have a persistent peer name in consistent setups like running the cluster on bare-metal nodes. This change adds an optional cli arg that allows specifying a custom peer name. If no peer name is specified a random name is generated. Duplicated peer names are detected, logged and increment the new metric `alertmanager_cluster_peer_name_conflicts_total`.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Thanks. This is also very useful for deployments like Kubernetes StatefulSet where we can pass the pod name in as an argument.
