--------------------------------------
An alternative would be to do something like in this StackOverflow answer:

> Shell health checker is running as root

> Key: AURORA-1641
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AURORA-1641
> Project: Aurora
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Executor, Security
> Reporter: Stephan Erb
> Priority: Blocker
>
> As the operator of an Aurora cluster, I have to guarantee that users can run
> commands only with the privileges of their {{role}}. The new health checker
> feature is risky in that regard, as it runs all health check commands with
> the privileges of the Thermos runner. In most common deployments this is root.
> The Thermos runner supports various means for setting the uid/user/role that
> is used to run user processes. The same configuration should also apply to
> the user-defined health checking command.
