 ## Using Docker
 The node\_exporter is designed to monitor the host system. It's not recommended
 to deploy it as Docker container because it requires access to the host system.
-If you need to run it on Docker, you can deploy this exporter using the
-[node-exporter Docker
-image](https://quay.io/repository/prometheus/node-exporter) with the following
-options and bind-mounts:
+Be aware that any non-root mount points you want to monitor will need bind-mounted
+into the container.
 
-for docker version >= 1.10
 ```bash
-docker run -d -p 9100:9100 \
-  -v "/proc:/host/proc:ro" \
-  -v "/sys:/host/sys:ro" \
-  -v "/:/rootfs:ro,rslave" \
+docker run -d \
   --net="host" \
-  quay.io/prometheus/node-exporter \
-    --path.procfs /host/proc \
-    --path.sysfs /host/sys \
-    --collector.filesystem.ignored-mount-points "^/(sys|proc|dev|host|etc)($|/)"
+  --pid="host" \

 ## Using a third-party repository for RHEL/CentOS/Fedora
 
 There is a [community-supplied COPR repository](https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/ibotty/prometheus-exporters/). It closely follows upstream releases.
