2 questions about wallet upgrade and uptime.



  • Question 1

    I have looked on siahub to my host now siahub can see wich wallet i uses.
    It is reporting:
    Wallet Version: 1.2.1
    Wallet is outdated, don't forget to upgrade your wallet to 1.2.2.
    How can this be done? And could i left my coins in the wallet while upgrading?
    What will happen if i don,t upgrade? Wil sia stop hosting?

    Question 2.

    I can see on siahub my uptime. Now my uptime is not that good i didn,t know that.
    It is:
    16 days - 94.88%
    *Uptime/downtime data collected locally by SiaHub wallet and may not provide exact information.
    Downtime 19 hours
    I can not remind me that sia was offine for so long. The only thing what i have done is to turn of accepting contracts for maybey a half / 3 quarter day. :(
    Is it possible that this goes back to 100%?...... If not it would be better start over again i think?....... if this is possible with the same ip?

    Regards Daniel



  • hi Daniel

    1. you can just download the latest version and unpack it to a new folder (that's how i do it). You can also overwrite the old files if you want.
      The important data is stored at a different place (%APPDATA%\Sia-UI\sia if you use Windows), so the blockchain, wallet etc. will still be there and the new version will find it automatically.

    2. I would not worry too much about that number. My host has a percentage of 88%, but i am pretty sure it was running all the time. If i look at SiaHub i see that many of the hosts have percentages between 90% and 95%.
