DSS added for handling missing attachments
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
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.

Updated filter logic for filtering on a DateTime column
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
When a class join was used in a report definition, the error "The Filter Logic used in the report is invalid" appeared while filtering rows of a report definition results on a DateTime column. This was a missed use case, and has been resolved by modifying pzGridSortPaginate to convert the data type value into the proper casing.

Performance improvements for database queries and archiving
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6
In order to improve the performance of database queries, repetitive unnecessary database calls have been removed, archival queries have been simplified, and diagnostic metrics were added. Optional batch requestors have been added to all archival services with their own DSS settings to allow processing more cases in parallel. It is recommended to create 2 additional indexes to help with the archival process. The indexes will be on:pegadata.pr_metadata (pyisparent, pyobjclass, pyarchivestatus) INCLUDE (pyinskey); pegadata.pr_metadata (pyisparent, pyarchivestatus) INCLUDE (pyinskey);

Special character handling added to filters for table sourced with parameterized RD
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
Filters were not working on a table when sourced with a report definition which accepted a parameter value containing special characters (Eg: S&P). This has been resolved by using StringUtils.reversibleCrossScriptingFilter in the pzGetGridColUniqueValues activity to allow filters to contain special characters.

Notification option for change of search nodes removed from Cloud
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
The search landing page for Pega Cloud was displaying a checkbox to enable sending automatic emails if the search node was modified. As the description of the notification 'Notify on change of search host nodes' suggests, this option is to send notifications only when a search host node has been modified(addition/removal) from the search landing page. This is not applicable for the automatic addition/removal of search nodes that happens on starting the node. As the addition/removal of nodes is not allowed from the search landing page on Cloud environments, this option is not applicable for Cloud and the checkbox has now been removed for that environment.

Data Social tag class FTS index query improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
A query intended to select from the link tag table to see if any cases were linked to the tag in question and then index the tag change was causing performance issues. Investigation showed that checking tag associations during FTS indexing fetched all matching rows from the table even though one was sufficient. To resolve this, the query will be created with max result count = 1, fetching up to 2 rows from the table.

Eligibility prompt integer values sorted by incremental size
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
In an Offer rule on the Eligibility tab of the Eligibility Builder, an eligibility row using {integer property} comparator {value} had the list of prompt values sorted alphabetically for integer values rather than incremental size when using Select value -> Existing Values. This has been corrected by revising the logic in addValuesToOutputPage to call Report.sort with different sorting algorithm for numeric values. Logic was also updated to call Report.sort for prompt lists.
