Greetings! Appreciate any guidance.

I decided to dip my toes into this and created a wallet on getmonero.org and fired up both the docker images (latest and nvidia). After mining for 16 hours the balance is still zero. What am I missing?
CPU - E5-1620 v3, 5 threads
GPU ASUS STRIX 1060 6gb
Are the below hash rates look inline?

Server is Ubuntu 16.04 LTS; created wallet on my desktop and passed it to the docker run commands.



Code:
ubuntu server:

nvidia-docker run -itd -e username=46**<~100 char long> -e email=****@gmail.com servethehome/monero_dwarfpool:nvidia

docker run -itd -e username=46**<~100 char long> -e email=****@gmail.com servethehome/monero_dwarfpool:latest

docker ps

on my windows desktop -

>monero-wallet-cli

Specify wallet file name (e.g., MyWallet). If the wallet doesn't exist, it will be created.

What is your payout threshold on Dwarfpool? What does your Dwarfpool stats page say?

For example I use 2.0 XMR and if I have 4KH/s it takes several days for any XMR to hit the wallet.

Fewer payouts mean less XMR lost in transaction fees.

@Patrick -- Thanks for pointing it out. How to check the stats from their main page wasn't too obvious. LMGTFY solved that. :) I checked the stats on the web and it working mined all of 0.02587702 XMR :) @ 0.74KH/s which matches my docker logs. Now I know how to check the status, I'll fire up dual E5-2660 v2 and can give you the hash rate if you want to add to the main thread.

X10SRA-F with E5-1620 and GTX 1060 mining is using 170W vs 70W idle at the wall. 30W is being lost between wall and PS output (as shown on the SM IPMIview) and that is SM 1000W Platinum PS.

One of these days I'll figure out how to run Rancher server & agent on the same server and add the host to the GUI and move along the process of learning Docker, ML etc.

If you want easy mode on a few hosts, Portainer is nice.
