Remove this from the system settings."
- translator/useparserfamily
- translator/usecodegenerator
- translator/usenativedouble
- translator/optimization/use71BlockAnalysis
- translator/optimization/use71ConstantFolding

In addition, the com.pega.pegarules.generation.parseoverride bootstrap option is no longer supported. Remove this option from the system settings.
PegaDATA connection settings now required in the prconfig.xml file
Valid from Pega Version 7.4
If you use the default prconfig.xml file that is included with Pega® Platform, and you have not removed the PegaDATA connection settings, no action is required. If you use a custom prconfig.xml file, for example, for running tests, ensure that the database connection settings for PegaDATA are not blank.
For more information about the connection settings, see PegaDATA connection settings in the prconfig.xml file.
