Hoping that someone can help me out here...

I'm successfully running a zcx container task on a z/OS 2.4 platform, and
now I'm trying to get 'grafana' running to show me various system
performance stats, etc.

According to the RedBook "Getting started with zOS Container Extensions
and Docker", section 7.6.1 says that I have to 'Install Node-Exporter'.
Following through the example commands, the container build appears to work
OK, but the documented 'run' command fails when the specified bind mount
for "/:/rootfs:ro" is included. The error message is:

docker: Error response from daemon: authorization denied by plugin
zcxauthplugin: Request to bind mount the path "/" with ro mode is disabled
for Docker running on IBM zCX appliance instance.

If I take out that particular term in the run command, then it apparently
works OK, but a 'docker ps -a' command immediately afterwards shows the
container status as 'Exited (1) *n* seconds ago'.

All of that begs the question: "How did the RedBook authors manage to get
things to work?" I must have missed some small vital step somewhere, but
currently I'm failing to see what it might be.

Regards
Sean
