Handling added to process Actions chunks on multiple nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
If the synching of chunks to a node was interrupted, attempting to resume the remaining chunks resulted in a processing issue if the Load Balancer passed the connection to a different node than was used for the first connection. As an example, if chunks were synched to node "A" and the restarted sync saved the remaining chunks to node "B", when all chunks were synced node "B" incorrectly determined node "A" was actually doing the work and skipped the processing of the chunks on node "B". This resulted in queued chunks being left untouched. To resolve this, the logic has been updated to allow multiple nodes to process the chunks.

Updates made for reviewing online case in an offline app
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After developing a Field Service Mobile app on Pega 8.3, updating and assessing the Mobile App on Pega 8.6 resulted in a flicker in the back arrow for returning to the work list. This was traced to WebViewManager not being available for online cases in offline apps, and has been resolved by adding an update that will use attachOnload/detachOnload if WebViewManager is not available. In addition, an issue with creating a space or document on mobile has been corrected by using the onViewRendered method instead of attachOnload for the offline app case.

Handling added for designtime page used in runtime
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
After creating a survey with branch Create survey cases routed to different actors, some cases missed the assignments and were left idle with no access to progress. Survey cases (with branches) having the 'when' conditions in flow connectors experienced this intermittently in production. This was traced to the use of D_pzSurveyPage data page called from the ProcessUpdate data transform while creating the survey: this data page is for design time and should not be used at runtime as it requires design time pages like CaseTypePage which will not be available at runtime. To resolve this issue for runtime, in Step 3 of pzGetAllConnectors, pyClassName will be copied from the step page and set for pzGetConnectorsForDecision.

Additional diagnostic logging added for ElasticSearch startup issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
The PyIndexerState was stuck in Starting status during node initialization. This issue could occur if the filesystem became hung due to network level issue while scanning entries from /etc/mtab, resulting in a lock which was not released correctly. In order to better determine which node entry in a cluster may be responsible for the hang, an update has been made which will use a temporary virtual environment to repeat the part of the initialization phase responsible and generate additional logs for debugging. To activate this, the PegaSearch.Diagnostics logger must be set in DEBUG mode. This duplicated virtual initialization will not interrupt the normal initialization.

Updated replica management for search clusters
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When using a cluster with two Universal nodes in the cluster, a daily restart process where the second node was not started until the first was fully up resulted in Search initialization failing for the first node while becoming active on the second node. This was traced to the methods used in increasing and decreasing replicas. This has been resolved by revising the handling of ElasticSearch node lifecycle and replicas through a new option "Dindex.searchNodeCount " which includes a specification for the number of expected search nodes. If this option is not present, the old method will be used.

Logic updated to allow page property and declare index with the same name
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
A Property which was in a Pagelist which in turn was embedded in a Page was not visible in the Report Browser. This was traced to the two properties sharing the same name, and was caused by a check which ensured only entries with unique names were added. In order to support this configuration, logic has been added to pzAddPropListForClass_TreeGrid such that if a page property and declare index share the same name, they are both added to the tree grid.

DSS added for handling missing attachments
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
When an S3 repository was configured as storage, some cases were not coming up in search and exception errors were seen in logs for a deleted attachment after every system restart/re-indexing of the search. Investigation showed these case objects were in the broken queue for pyFTSIncrementalIndexer due to a null pointer error encountered when indexing the attachment, and that the attachments were available in the repository but could not be read from the attachment repository during indexing. To resolve this, a new DSS setting has been added which allows selecting one of two behaviors: * Pega-SearchEngine indexing/distributed/fail_on_missing_attachment_file = true : broken item is generated, but with a meaningful error message. This is the default behavior * Pega-SearchEngine indexing/distributed/fail_on_missing_attachment_file = false: case is indexed, but without the problematic attachment. Error message is printed out to the logs.

Parameter added to prevent name localization in Dev Studio Reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7
Running the DataTableEditorReport against a customer table translated names that matched localized values, such as "Mr. Block" became "Mr. Sperren" when the locale was set to de_DE even though the property was marked as "Do not localize" in UI Controls in the report definition filter. To resolve this, the parameter 'pyskiplocalization' has been added for use in the RRFilters_logic and while displaying the select Values popup.
