"docker pull redis" fails on Docker for Windows

Question

I've installed Docker EE for Windows Server 2016 and was able to pull and run the hello-world example.

When I invoke "docker pull redis" , I get:

Using default tag: latest
latest: Pulling from library/redis
no matching manifest for windows/amd64 in the manifest list entries

My docker versions:

Client:
 Version:      17.10.0-ee-preview-2
 API version:  1.32
 Go version:   go1.8.3
 Git commit:   10e292d
 Built:        Thu Sep 21 19:58:53 2017
 OS/Arch:      windows/amd64

Server:
 Version:      17.10.0-ee-preview-2
 API version:  1.32 (minimum version 1.24)
 Go version:   go1.8.3
 Git commit:   777d4a1
 Built:        Thu Sep 21 20:08:05 2017
 OS/Arch:      windows/amd64
 Experimental: false

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

As the docker info shows, the server is not started in experiemental mode.

You need to start docker server with experiemental mode on windows server. Check linux-containers-on-windows to see how you can do that.
