Description
dfx canister delete
occasionally fails because it attempts to withdraw too many cycles from the canister before it is deleted. Usually,dfx
tries again with a larger margin of cycles, but sometimes this gets stuck. It is now possible to use--initial-margin
to manually supply a margin in case the automatic margin does not work.This is a temporary workaround until a clean solution exists (requires spec change, runtime change, wallet change, agent support).
Fixes SDK-1556
How Has This Been Tested?
Tested manually on mainnet
