Updated replica management for search clusters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using a cluster with two Universal nodes in the cluster, a daily restart process where the second node was not started until the first was fully up resulted in Search initialization failing for the first node while becoming active on the second node. This was traced to the methods used in increasing and decreasing replicas. This has been resolved by revising the handling of ElasticSearch node lifecycle and replicas through a new option "Dindex.searchNodeCount " which includes a specification for the number of expected search nodes. If this option is not present, the old method will be used.

Support added for multiple host proxy architecture
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using an architecture where certain types of users were sent through multiple proxy servers to get the Pega Cloud instance, an exception was generated at the point of accessing the environment. This was traced to the use of Apache 2.4 with mod_proxy. As the request passed through each proxy, the x-forwarded-host header had values appended to it by mod_proxy which resulted in the error "com.pega.pegarules.pub.context.PRSecurityException: Multiple host names in header X-forwarded-Host". This has been resolved by updating the code to support using a multiple host proxy configuration.

Correct time zone chosen for fr_Fr appointment functionq
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using the "fr_Fr" location and and "Europe/Paris" time zone for appointments, a null pointer exception was seen related to the function getStartOrEndDateTime. Investigation showed that the incorrect time zone was being picked from the fr_FR.xml file when parsing the date. To resolve this, 4 letter time zone codes have been moved above the 3 letter time zone codes.

Added handling for Create Source and Target properties of Date
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A report definition was not displaying results after update, and a stack overflow was reported. This was a missed use case for Create Source and Target properties of Date, and has been resolved by adding a boolean flag to avoid autochain during validations when data type is Date.

Charts sourced from Report Definition show correct color post-update
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After update, the color coding was not working on charts sourced from a report definition. This was due to the correct seriesType not being determined when function aliases were used in charts, and has been resolved by adding a condition in configuration.java to determine correct the SeriesType.

Resolved classcast exception with assembled HTML controls
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A classcast exception was being generated on login. Investigation showed the Static Assembler was unexpectedly using a different Assembler to assemble the Html control rule. Standard behavior is that StreamBuilderAssembler assembles controls of type StreamBuilder and ControlAssemblerForVTable assembles controls of type ControlBuilder. In this case, static assembly for HTML controls using VTable was performed using StreamBuilderAssembler, causing a classcast exception when using VTable because the instance of the generated.html class was incorrectly inheriting from StreamBuilder (the parent class of ControlBuilder) instead of ControlBuilder which is the specified interface in the generated.html Java code. This has been resolved by updating the system to skip rules of type 'Rule-HTML-Property'(control) during Static Assembly.

Added reporting on descendant classes for framework
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Reporting on descendant classes was not working as expected. In a report definition with "Reporting on descendant classes enabled," the framework class and implementation class each refers to two different tables that use the same names but belong to two different schemas. Investigation showed the generated SQL query was not adding the necessary UNION clause, and the records from the descendant classes were missing when running the report on framework class. This was a missed use case and has been corrected.

Resolved Sub Report Filter Criteria error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After upgrade from Pega 7 to Pega 8, Sub Report filter criteria were throwing a runtime error when pyPartyFullName from Index-WorkPartyUri was used as a filter condition. Under certain conditions, Sub Report and Main report use class joins with the Index-WorkPartyUri table to get the count of cases. In this case, the error was caused by the ValidateFilterValue edit rule passing the wrong class name for the sub report class join property. This has been resolved.

Check added to ensure StepPage generation for Top keyword
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.2
A ClassCastException was thrown when top page is used, indicating "com.pega.pegarules.data.internal.clipboard.ClipboardPropertyImpl cannot be cast to com.pega.pegarules.pub.clipboard.ClipboardPage". This has been resolved by adding a check which will generate a myStepPage for Keyword "Top" as necessary.
