title: Host monitoring from a docker container
body: <p>While I believe the answer is no, I feel I should still ask: is it possible to monitor a host system from within a Docker container?  To make deployments and upgrades easier, I was hoping I could put some monitoring tools inside a container.  Specifically, I'm thinking tools like atop, sar, etc.</p>
  
  <p>Thoughts?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
