Hello friends,
I am new to NEM (Xem) and appreciate your help.
If you close your nem wallet but leave your program open/running will the NIS continue to load blocks and synchronize?
If you only close the wallet and not NIS then NIS is still synchronizing in the background.
When I try to send XEM it says almost ready - NIS is currently loading blocks and wallet will be functional when DB is fully loaded. However, the green icon tells me NIS is running (fully synchronized). Advice?
Thanks.
Loading the db needs a while depending on your hardware but it should not need more than 5 minutes. The green icons you are referring to are probably the ones from NEM monitor. There are actually 3 parts, one for NCC, one for NIS and one for the synchronization status. Only if all 3 are green NIS is fully synchronized. So which icons are green and which are not?
BloodyRookie, I am sorry I am responding late to your reply.
The green Nem shield that I am talking about is a hidden icon on my computer. It tells me that the NIS is currently running and synchronized and the NCC is running. However, when I try to send XEM from my wallet it tells me the NIS is currently loading blocks and the wallet will be functional when DB is fully loaded.
Does this mean that I need to wait longer and keep the wallet open for it to synchronize?
Thanks.
