Not sure if you are on M1 or Intel. Do you have problems pulling other images as well, or just this one?

I assume you have some reason to use that particular version; the newest (8.2.3, pushed 5 days ago) seems to have

arm64/v8

too.

so guys... I didn't get it by the command that I started the thread but I got it by the command below putting the url of the image. so i believe it is something with regard to dockerhub registry or am i wrong?

% nerdctl run -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -e "discovery.type=single-node" -v elast_data:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data <http://docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:6.0.0|docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch:6.0.0>

with a newer version I was also able to upload the container?

nerdctl run -p 9200:9200 -p 9300:9300 -e "discovery.type=single-node" -v elast_data:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data elasticsearch:7.17.4

So you'll need to use elasic version 7 or higher for arm64 support
