There are three locations where the `docker run` command is referenced: - 2x http://docs.grafana.org/installation/docker/ - 1x https://grafana.com/grafana/download?platform=docker The fix syncs the given `docker run` command arguments with the other two.

Installing using Docker
Grafana is very easy to install and run using the offical docker container.
$ docker run -d -p 3000:3000 grafana/grafana
All Grafana configuration settings can be defined using environment variables, this is especially useful when using the above container.
Docker volumes & ENV config
The Docker container exposes two volumes, the sqlite3 database in the
folder /var/lib/grafana and configuration files is in /etc/grafana/
folder. You can map these volumes to host folders when you start the
container:
$ docker run -d -p 3000:3000 \
-v /var/lib/grafana:/var/lib/grafana \
-e "GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_PASSWORD=secret" \
grafana/grafana
In the above example I map the data folder and sets a configuration option via
an ENV instruction.
Configuration
The back-end web server has a number of configuration options. Go the [Configuration]({{< relref "configuration.md" >}}) page for details on all those options.
