pzEditSkills activity updated for better skill matching
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
In the pzEditSkills activity, a select skill is added to the operator. A check is made using a comparison of pyRuleName equal to pySkillLabel to see whether this skill exists in the system; if it exists it is directly added to the operator profile, and if it does not it is created and added to the operator profile. However, pyRuleName uses a short skill identifier string, for example ‘XML’ whereas pySkillLabel is the longer human readable string, for example ‘XML programming skill’. Therefore, it was possible for Pega to determine the skill did not exist and proceed to creating a new skill with pyRuleName equal to the pySkillLabel of the existing skill in the first available unlocked ruleset. In order to ensure the proper matches are made, the pzEditSkills activity step 4.1 has been modified to get the rule name instead of skill name.

50 count limitation removed from application list export
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
Previously, using Designer Studio -> Application -> Distribution -> Export to export the list of applications limited the results to 50. This number was hardcoded in the page size count setting for the Report Definition. In order to better support complex installations, this limit has been lifted.

Resolved system performance issues for clusters of >15 DF nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
The introduction of distributed event logging used to facilitate data flow troubleshooting in Pega 8.1 created a negative impact on performance for extremely large clusters (>15 DF nodes). To resolve this, the distributed logs have been removed and the system will save events in the database instead.

Rule-Connect-SOAP error fixed for WAS/JBOSS environments
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
After upgrade, SOAP webservice was failing with the error “Couldn't create OMElement from string value for the activity InvokeAxis2 in class Rule-Connect-SOAP". This occurred on sites using a WebSphere/JBoss environment, and was traced to an issue where the WAS classloader was loading its default jar at the same time the Pega classloader was loading the same jar into JVM. This has been resolved.

Required image replacing Mandatory Asterisk displays correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.4
After creating a mandatory text input field in a section and uploading the required image in place of the default image, the previous default image was still displayed in the portal even after clearing the browser cache and /temp folder on the app server. This was caused by the CSS rule 'pzbase-div-layouts' using specific selectors that had a hard-coded content hash for the image, which has been corrected.
