Corrected page counts for 'save-as' reports
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
The total pages count and last page icon were not displaying when the Preview button was clicked after a save-as of a report in the Report Browser. Investigation tracked this to a visible when condition on those fields that was being changed to the default of false during the save-as, and this has been resolved.

Handling added for comma value in FusionCharts XML
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After creating a Summary Report through the report browser and adding that report to the Dashboard, clicking on the report to drill down generated the error "Can't open the rule with the specified keys". Investigation showed that if a category or series in a Report Definition chart contained a comma, the drilldown would not work because of an incorrect pyclassname being passed. This was traced to the use of XML to configure the chart: the FusionCharts third-party library parses the link XML incorrectly and splits JS arguments at any comma. This was a missed use case for having a comma in the name, and has been resolved by adding encoding for the comma value in pzMultiSeriesData FusionCharts XML rule. Then this will be decoded in the drilldown JS APIs pzPega_chart_legacydrilldown and pega_report_summary.

Added accessibility to Report view context menu
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When on the My Reports screen and a Summary report is selected, the Report Viewer displays a Summarized Reports table with a column header that opens a command menu upon right-click of the mouse. This functionality is enabled in the Report Definition rule by selecting the checkbox Enable column command menu under the Report Viewer tab. Although keyboard users can open the menu via Shift+F10, keyboard users who cannot see the screen were not informed that this functionality is available as the screen reader did not announce this. This has been resolved.

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.
