Performance improvements for CDH
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Significant slowness was seen in Customer Decision Hub (CDH) during save-as or check-in/check-out of an offer rule. This has been resolved by passing the current parameter page to the RuleCheckOut activity in pxUpdateRecordInner so that CDH can pass a skipValidate parameter to skip the validation during checkout.

SAML datapages cleared before new authentication
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
If a previous user had not logged out or timed out when using SAML authentication, a second person using the same device/browser would end up in the first user's session after performing their own authentication. Investigation showed the second login D_SAMLAssertionDataPage was not getting refreshed with the current user login details; this has been resolved by explicitly deleting the SAML Datapages before processing a new login if the session has not timed out.

Locking APIs updated to handle CDK key rotation
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
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.

Updating handling for for Pega-supplied operators with MFA
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
When a site is blocking prweb and using prweb/PRAuth for login with MFA enabled, admin user id logins failed and MFA showed the error screen for Pega-supplied users. This was due to MFA verification not being configured for Pega-supplied operators, and has been resolved by adding an Adminstrator condition to skip MFA for for Pega-supplied operators.

DSS DisableAutoComplete setting honored
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Setting DisableAutoComplete DSS was not working as expected. This was traced to the system not being able to read the DSS value due to timing related to database startup, and has been resolved by directing the system to read the setting in PREnvironment.java instead of from the prconfig.
