Locking and classmap improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Threads were getting stuck inside classMap and tableInformationMap, causing nodes to go down. This was traced to issues with class map performance and locking, and has been resolved by replacing the lock library with a newer version and refactoring the tableInformationMapImpl class to use a concurrent hashmap instead.

Resolved parent lock sending child item to broken queue
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
esolved parent lock sending child item to broken queueIf the ServiceLevelEvents agent tried to process the queue item for a child case but encountered a lock error because the parent case was locked, the queue item was immediately going to the Broken-Process status instead of re-queueing the item to try again in 15 minutes. If the property was set to 'Copy data from a data page', the item was re-queued. To resolve this, the unwind and forward chain calls have been reversed. A dynamic system setting is available to reset the change.

Modified thread data page cleanup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Some cases were becoming stuck at a particular stage and not proceeding further even though the task in the backend was complete. Investigation traced this to work done that removed declarative pages at the thread level to optimize performance while other clipboard pages were retained, and the issue has been resolved by deleting all thread data pages after every item processed by the agent.

Corrected Outlook web inline image handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Outlook web was not able to render inline images and instead added them as external attachments. Investigation showed inline images were not being rendered properly in Outlook web due to the disposition not being set. This has been corrected.

Adding handling for property without parent page
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
Filtering was not working for a DateTime control in an optimized grid with embedded property which was a function alias defined in a report definition referenced by a Data Page. This was traced to the system assuming that every property has a parent page, which this use case did not. To resolve this, an update has been made that will return null for the parentGroupOrListProp if one does not exist.

Updated JSON DT nested page property handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
In a JSON data transform, when using an "Update page" step on a single-page property, as a child step of an "Append and map to" step where a page list property is given, the page list was populated with only one result but the single-page property was treated like a page list and received multiple results. This has been resolved by updating the ClipboardJSONDeserializer implementation and downstream abstractions to support "clipboard only" relations as properties in nested Page Lists.

Performance improvements for Attachment Migration Utility
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The Attachment Migration Utility was showing a zero count for attachments in the Pega Database. This was traced to the underlying report definition that retrieves data for the Attachment Migration Utility timing out, and has been resolved by updating the activities to improve performance for applications having a large number of attachments without customization.
