Both Servers are running on the same ESX Cluster and share the same settings.

Hopefully someone can help me.

It might be worth trying to upgrade to a more recent Docker version:

$ProgressPreference = 'SilentlyContinue'
Stop-Service docker
Remove-Item -Force -Recurse $Env:ProgramFiles\docker
Invoke-WebRequest "https://get.docker.com/builds/Windows/x86_64/docker-17.05.0-ce.zip" -UseBasicParsing -OutFile docker.zip
Expand-Archive docker.zip -DestinationPath $Env:ProgramFiles
Remove-Item -Force docker.zip
Remove-Item -Force -Recurse $Env:ProgramFiles\docker\completion
Start-Service docker

thanks for the reply. I´ve startet over using a fresh clean VM. Installed docker using this install guide.

Afterwards, i´ve executed the code you have provided which results in following docker version:
