INC-200218 · Issue 692432

Added handling for calling truncate with external Cassandra

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

A JMX exception was generated when using external Cassandra. This was traced to the combination of calling truncate and using external Cassandra for DDS, and has been resolved by adding a 'do not execute' consistency check during a truncate operation when using external Cassandra.

Scenario Planner performance improvements

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Scenario planner runs were causing out of memory errors on the dataflow nodes. To resolve this, updates have been made to improve performance. Only relevant information will be kept for decision funnel simulations out of SR pages, the memory footprint of data structures used to aggregate and rollup counts has been reduced, and temporary objects will be released as soon as they are not needed anymore.

INC-201216 · Issue 692416

ADM group chart level working in Prediction Studio

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Charts were not visible for Group level ADM in the Prediction Studio Models tab. This was traced to an unneeded filter for this version of Pega and has been resolved by withdrawing the filter.

ADMinputsource field population updated to handle transactional decisions

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

The CaptureResponse flow was failing while writing to AdaptiveAnalytics with the error "IllegalArgumentException - argument does not represent JSON object". This occurred while running an outbound campaign where a few decisions were treated as transactional and did not have Model executions. Attempting to set a response for these decisions resulted in a JSON parse exception being thrown due to pxADMInputs not being populated (no models executed). This occurred only when using transactional actions in CDH, and was caused by the system only including predictive models during the make decision flow due to common inputs not being stored. While there was a workaround of overriding the property pzADMInputSource to use modelReferences instead of admInputContainer, this has been resolved by correcting how the pzADMinputsource field is populated. When there is no modelInput, the system will not populate that field so the page is ignored.

ConfigurationReconciliationTask updated for greater compatibility

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

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.

INC-201336 · Issue 691900

Tombstone cleanup modified to handle very large volume environments

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Cassandra nodes were periodically suffering from an out of memory condition. This was traced to tumbling windows creating too many tombstones for Cassandra to clean up effectively when running in a very high volume environment with a short tumbling time. This has been resolved by modifying the procedure away from using individual tombstones to instead use range tombstones which will continuously supersede the previous tombstone so there is never an opportunity for them to build up.

INC-201337 · Issue 691607

Key Value Store handling revised for greater backwards compatibility

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Previous optimization work done to reduce the size of the "nm" field when the hierarchy string is empty resulted in some Key Value Store records not being read from older systems during update. This has been corrected.

Inbound scenario planner simulations updated

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

The Customer Decision Hub (CDH) Simulation Planner acceptance metrics have been updated to consider only one proposition per subject during calculations. The proposition being considered is always the one with rank 1 returned by the top level decision strategy.

INC-201363 · Issue 692980

File Dataset wildcards updated for ADM storage

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Attempting to access the filepath was failing and an error was seen indicating "Could not obtain lock 'Create repository file pegacloudfilestorage:ADM/Rule-Decision-AdaptiveModel/Data-Decision-Request-Customer". While creating a file name, a lock is generated while checking the file names of existing files. If the file data set has a large number of files, a condition may occur where some threads are unable to save data and an exception is thrown. To resolve this, the wildcard previously used in the file name has been replaced with the Pega node id + thread id + current timestamp. This will ensure all wildcards are unique and there is no need to lock and list existing files.
