ServicePackage thread handling improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Work recently done to improve the release of requestor pool threads for the ServicePackage has been further enhanced by adding an explicit status notification to the thread waiting for Data Pages to be loaded in background and added support for the use case of a missing object handler. This also resolves a 504 Gateway Time-out error intermittently seen while trying to open the URL of the Pega application.

Locking APIs updated to handle CDK key rotation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
it was not possible to save cases for several hours following the CDK key rotation. This was traced to an exception that caused the system to attempt to acquire a lock on the CDK key instance, and normal save behavior would resume after the default sys lock time out period expired. This has been resolved by updating the system to use LockManager APIs to perform a database save with locks.

Bix extract performance improved by only checking cipher type for encrypted properties
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
Previously, if no cipher was configured in extract Rules the cipher type defaulted to null and wasn't cached. This caused performance issues when running against the database. In order to improve performance, the code has been modified to only check for cipher type if the property is encrypted.

Validation on DateTime property working for mobile
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A mandatory DateTime field with "Allow text entry" set to 'No' was not restricting validation when no value was provided. This was an unintended consequence of recent work done to validate input type date along with input type hidden, and has been reverted.

DSS added to control DADT purge
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Thread dumps and service restarts were seen when Decision Engine data nodes were working with a very large number of tables. This has been resolved by adding a DSS as part of the CDH layer which will skip CDH DADT that contains pattern DATA_BATCHOUT, for instance "DATA-ADMIN-DB-TABLE DATA-BATCHOUTPR469001" to prevent the deletion causing full cache invalidation of the table information map. With this DSS set to true, when the purge agent runs and deletes the DADT, class cache should no longer be invalidated. With the DSS missing or set to a value other than true, the class cache invalidation will still occur.

Null check added for debug logging pointer error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When DEBUG logging was enabled on the class 'com.pega.pegarules.session.internal.mgmt.base.AbstractPageDirectory', system restart resulted in the node failing to startup with a null pointer error in a debug block of this class. A null check has been added to resolve this.

Check and error message added for filename containing "%00"
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
At the time of file attachment or upload, if the file name contained % followed by two 0s (%00), the file upload mechanism distorted the UI and the Pega logo screen popped up. The file was saved properly in the ServiceExport directory, but while fetching the attachment info, the file was split in two because the engine considered %00 as a delimiter. This has been resolved by adding a file name check and a pyInvalidFileName field value to be used for an error message.

Navigation Breadcrumb honors pyDisplay in navigation link subflows
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.1
After configuring a sub process (screen flow) inside a screen flow connected by a decision shape having a fork condition, the Navigation breadcrumb for this subprocess was always visible irrespective of the connector when condition. This was traced to pyDisplay not being considered for subflows while building navigation links, and has been resolved.

Filtering added for DisableDormantOperators
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When running the Disable Dormant Operators agent, many operators were seen which were dormant but not disabled. Investigation showed the activity was fetching all of the operators without filtering the deactivation state. This has been resolved by adding a filter condition in pzDisableDormantOperators to fetch only deactivate state users.
