I'm using Docker Desktop on Windows 10 with Windows containers without any problems.

Now, I also want to use Docker on Windows Server, I've tried Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019 so far.

I can install Docker Enterprise without any problems, I can start a container based on the nanoserver image without problems. But after a while (something between 10 and 20 minutes), the container terminates.

Has anyone seen such a behavior? Is this the expected behavior?

The Windows is

OS Name:                   Microsoft Windows Server 2019 Standard
OS Version:                10.0.17763 N/A Build 17763

I've installed Docker with this commands:

Install-WindowsFeature -Name Containers
Uninstall-WindowsFeature Windows-Defender
Restart-Computer -Force

Install-Module -Name DockerMsftProvider -Repository PSGallery -Force
Install-Package -Name docker -ProviderName DockerMsftProvider -Force -RequiredVersion 19.03

Start-Service docker

Afterwards I can use the docker ps command and I can start the nanoserver image using the command

docker run -it mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:1809 cmd

The container starts and I can use it.

But when I leave it open and do nothing within, after a while it terminated. The same happens with the image servercore:ltsc2019 and images derived from that one.
