ConfigurationReconciliationTask updated for greater compatibility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After updating from Pega 8.3 to Pega 8.6, models which previously had learning and performance AUC greater than 0.7 reported an AUC of 0.5. This was traced to the update handling in ConfigurationReconciliationTask. AdmRuleBrowser does not perform ruleset resolution, so all rules were returned, for example the rule for model A in both the 08-01 and 08-03 ruleset. The system then iterated over all of the adaptive model rules returned by AdmRuleBrowser in order to assess whether a configuration update was necessary. The condition to update the model rule was met when either the config key did not exist (indicating a newly added configuration) or the model rule was "old" (version <2). For models generated in Pega 8.3 or earlier the version number for all rules must be 1, and the update to Pega 8.6 therefore caused the ConfigurationReconciliationTask to be applied to all adaptive model rules. To resolve this, the configuration update check in ConfigurationReconciliationTask has been removed.

S3 attachment migration handles LInk-Attachment with multiple instances
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After S3 attachment migration, some attachments were intermittently not opening and displaying an error relating to being unable to load the file. Investigation showed that the attachments that failed to open did not have a pxStorageType tag in the XML of the work item. After the migration is done, the corresponding Data-WorkAttach-File and Link-Attachment instances are updated to point them to the repository. In this case, multiple LInk-Attachment instances were pointing to the same Data-WorkAttach-File instances, so only one Link-Attachment was updated and all of the other instances pointing to the same Data-WorkAttach-File instance were rendered unusable. While there was a workaround of manually updating the storage type in the database, this has been resolved by updating "pzgetattachmentcontent","pzupdatesourcereferences", and "pzuploadcontenttoexternalstorage" to check whether attachment is already migrated or not using the boolean parameter "isAttachmentAlreadyMigrated" to ensure all of the other Link-Attachment instances for a particular attachment are updated. If a migration was done and all Data-WorkAttach-File instances are pointing to a repository with some Link-Attachment instances not updated, those will be updated by running the migration again.

Logic updated for handling future events in strategy tests
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3
After upgrade, there was an unexpected exception "EventStrategy error in SerializeUtil: Integer too large to read, Size:48" while retrieving the final BBK aggregate results during strategy tests with several different pre-existing customerIDs, and no results were returned. When aggregations are read, there is a check to make sure the system does not return empty records. The logic for determining whether there is empty data in the record was mistakenly reading the event count from the wrong bytes which were part of a date for 2023. This was due to the second byte of the year date in hex being interpreted as the start of the event count. As a workaround, results are returned if no pxOutcomeTime dates in the database are more than a year in advance along with all aggregate datasets being recreated on production immediately after upgrade from v8.1 to v8.5. To resolve this issue going forward, the logic has been updated to handle the errors, and future records will trigger a warning in the log with information such as "Event time greater than current time in clipboard page. Event Time = Mon Mar 10 14:46:27 UTC 2025, Current Time = Tue Feb 09 14:18:49 UTC 2021. Ignoring event...".
