- I have a 2013 Mac Pro running the latest Parallels Desktop Pro v 12.2.0 (41591) On it, is a Windows 10 Pro virtual with Docker Version 17.03.1-ce-win10 (11972).
- Volume mapping for Docker-machine on Mac with the SQL Server on Linux image is not supported at this time. This, of course, makes it difficult to do any more than really simple testing on the Mac if you have to re-install the database every time you start up Docker.

Also, unlike Docker for Mac, you cannot run any version of VirtualBox, VMWare or any other Type 2 hypervisor along with Docker for Windows. That’s because Docker for Windows uses Hyper-V under the hood which is a Type 1 hypervisor. Get started with Docker for Mac Estimated reading time: 16 minutes Welcome to Docker for Mac! Docker is a full development platform for creating containerized apps, and Docker for Mac is the best way to get started with Docker on a Mac.
Docker can only run with 'windows containers' because when trying to fire up the 'MobyLinux' instance in Hyper-V, it never fires up always bombing at:
tsc: Fast TSC calibration failedI understand this to be some time dependent sync that has to happen at boot time or such failure occurs. I bought a WD 1TB SSD on a Thunderbolt dock to speed up the run/boot time of the virtual. (it was on my platter RAID cage before) to no avail. No diff.
Parallels IS set to 'enable nested virtualization' and I have started a virtual in Hyper-V on the win 10 Pro VM just fine, no errors. I have checked and unchecked 'PMU Virtualization' which I understand will provide statistics to the host but slow the VM.
I tried:
- reducing the number of assigned cores to the VM as suggested byanother post to no avail (2-6 cores tried)
- Reducing the cores to '1' for Docker (and mixing with above attempt)
- increasing the number of cores to docker
- adding/reducing memory to VM/Docker
- playing with theC:Program FilesDockerDockerresourcesMobyLinux.ps1file that loads the VM whereas in another post I changed something to
- verifying that 'C:UsersPublicDocumentsHyper-VVirtual hard disksMobyLinuxVM.vhdx' is teh correct location for the .vhdx
- verifying that the .iso is at 'C:Program FilesDockerDockerResourcesmobylinux.iso'
- uninstalling Hyper-v/reinstalling Hyper-v manually and letting Docker do it automatically...
I am at wit's end. I specifically bought this machine so I could do my MS/Visual Studio development along with iOS development on the same box. I have done so, this way, for the past 5-6 years with a 2009 Mac Pro before and now my 2013 MP, but never with Docker before...
So, I need one of two solutions:
- a way to make Visual Studio 2015/2017 'look' at my host Mac's Docker instance in order to debug/move on to development
- a way to make this 'MobyLinux' Docker vm run.

To add Windows, Linux, or another operating system to your Mac, Parallels Desktop creates a virtual machine (VM) or a virtual copy of your current Windows PC inside your Mac. You can then install Windows in the virtual machine, just as you would install any operating system on a regular computer. Run multiple OSes at the same time, all on your Mac. It’s like two computers in one!
- Open Windows applications side by side with your macOS applications, without having to restart your Mac
- Copy and paste text or drag and drop objects between Mac and Windows.
- Run Windows games and other 3D applications.
- Transfer all your data from a PC and use it on your Mac.
- Easily share files, devices, and other resources between Windows and Mac.
- Install other operating systems, such as trial versions of Windows, Linux, another copy of macOS, and free virtual appliances—and use them together.
- And much more…
There are several ways to install Windows (or any other operating system) in a virtual machine, and Parallels Desktop makes it easy to get started within minutes.
If you need Windows on your Mac, Parallels Desktop can help you download and install Windows 10. All you need to do is follow our Installation Assistant and click “Install Windows.”
Or you can provide your own Microsoft Windows license key, purchase Windows directly from within Parallels Desktop, or transfer an existing Boot Camp partition with Windows already installed.
With Parallels Desktop, you can switch between Mac and Windows without ever needing to reboot your computer.
If you have already installed Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, or Windows 7 on your Mac using Boot Camp, you can set Parallels Desktop to run Windows from the Boot Camp Partition or import Windows and your data from Boot Camp into Parallels Desktop as a new virtual machine.
To use Windows from Boot Camp, install Parallels Desktop and follow the Installation Assistant.
Play your Windows-only game on a Mac using Parallels Desktop. Parallels Desktop even has a virtual machine setting dedicated to gaming to optimize performance. With ongoing support for DirectX and OpenGL, many popular games and game engines are supported within Parallels Desktop. Download a free 14-day trial of Parallels Desktop and see if your desired game is supported.
