A few tips to prevent FCs with online nodes due to HTLC expiration if you are LND.
1️⃣ Update your client to the version 0.16.2 ASAP if you haven't done it already!
2️⃣ You can restart LND a few blocks before HTLC expiration. Very often immediately after that the problem HTLC is resolved.
In order to speed up the restart, you can temporary disable DB compacting by modifying the following string in the [bolt] section of your lnd.conf file:
db.bolt.auto-compact=false
This is absolutely safe, but speeds up restarting process significantly (up to few minutes or even less). You can restart LND more often and without any harm.
Then, when the dust settles, this value should be returned back to "true".
