I have a number of filesystems that are mounted within a directory structure only accessible by root. Non-root users are unable to statfs() those mount points, however I need to monitor their disk usage. What I will probably do in the long-term is mount those partitions into another directory and then bind-mount them to the root-owned path, however running the exporter as root is a work-around I am using until that happens. - Anton
