Cassandra startup calls reordered to avoid deadlock
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
Nodes received a service request but it became stuck. This was traced to a deadlock related to CassandraSessionCache.getSession, and has been resolved by reordering the method calls used to initialize the Cassandra session to delay adding the session change listener and avoid a deadlock scenario.

DSS added to control section collapse on refresh
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
After update from 8.5, using dynamic layouts that included certain controls (autocomplete/text/dropdown) configured with Refresh-Other Section -> Parent / Top Level Section such as a pyCaseActionArea with Event 'On Change' showed a different behavior: entering a value in the configured text/auto-complete field that leads to the refresh of the top level section will collapse all expanded sections if there is a refresh trigger within the embedded section or dynamic layout of the collapsible layouts. In order to control this behavior, a new DSS has been introduced. By default HonourExpandWhenOnRefresh (owning ruleset Pega-UIEngine) will be set to false to maintain the current behavior of collapse on refresh, while setting it to true will use the older behavior of maintaining expanded sections.

Added support for creating predictive models in Production
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
While creating a new predictive model rule in Prediction studio, the case was going into broken process after selecting the template with the error message "Error loading D_ProjectList , Reason : No databases defined in properties file:/databases.properties". This was an unexpected use case for creating models in Production level, and has been resolved by updating the flows to turn off the draft mode in this scenario.

Enhanced SSA metrics made available
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
In order to better diagnose delays related to the time when a Campaign is scheduled to start and the time when the Dataflow actually starts to run, an update has been made which will generate detailed metrics to cover some of the strategy execution key performance intensive areas. Additional lower level internal metrics related to SSA engine execution have also been made available by way of a DSS to collect more runtime insight for diagnosis. To enable the collection of these Level 2 SSA internal metrics, set the dataflow/shape/strategy/detailed_metrics/level2 DSS in the Pega-DecisionEngine rule set to 'true'. A comprehensive set of enhanced metrics will be available in Pega 8.8.

Cleaned up outdated prprivcommon class references
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
After update, an exception was generated related to FirstUseAssembler. This was a missed use case for the WriteEFormToFile activity from previous work which restricted loading classes from prprivcommon.jar, and has been resolved by removing references to the following classes which were made inaccessible by the changes to prprivcommon: com.pega.pegarules.storage.FileStorageManager com.pega.pegarules.storage.fs.resadaptor.RAFile com.pega.pegarules.storage.fs.resadaptor.OutputStreamWrapper

Rest connector passes RequestAttachmentPage to child requestor
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
While invoking the Rest Connect from a data page, the error "InboundMappingException: Exception occurred while mapping incoming response" was generated. Requests with "Content-type:multipart/form-data" require "pyRequestAttachmentPage" or "pyResponseAttachmentPage" to be populated with correct values. When Rest-Connector was executed in parallel, those pages were not copied to the child requestor and the rest call executed from the child requestor did not have correct header and body. To resolve this, MethodConnect.java has been updated to correctly pass pyRequestAttachmentPage to the child requestor.
