# blossom database_instance:dedication:cancel

Cancel before cutover, keeping Shared and removing the Dedicated copy

## Usage

    blossom database_instance:dedication:cancel --id ID [--yes] [--follow] [--timestamps]

## Flags

| Flag | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `--id (required)` | Database instance id |
| `--yes, -y` | Confirm the migration operation |
| `--follow, -f` | Follow the migration Activity |
| `--timestamps` | Show log timestamps. Default: true. |

Cancel before cutover, keep Shared serving and remove the Dedicated copy.

    blossom database_instance:dedication:cancel --id database_instance-123 --yes --follow

Cancellation waits for the current copy operation to stop before cleanup.
After cutover starts, cancellation is refused; use `dedication:retry` to resume
toward Dedicated.
