INC-187267 · Issue 679369

Resolved error for custom relative dates

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

An error was seen when parsing the [Date Property] [is before/after] [Last/Next x days] while using a custom amount of number of days in Customer Decision Hub (CDH). This was due to the system not supporting the [Last/Next x days] feature for SSA, but only detecting this during parsing for the prefixed values for Proposition Filters and not custom values. As the parser did not realize the construct referring to the relative date was not supported, it created an SSA that caused an exception during execution. This has been resolved.

Actuals sync clears data from cache and persistence

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

When sync attempted to clear the existing data from Actuals before copying data from the interaction history, the partition was cleared from the cache but not from persistence. IH data that was then copied to the same partition time ranges had new field descriptors created that did not match the format of the old data in persistence. As a result, when a query triggered the loading of such a partition, the mix of data with the old and new formats caused the load to fail. This has been resolved by updating the system to ensure the data is deleted properly from both the cache and persistence.

Proposition filter populated for test business Issue

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

When running the proposition filter rule, no drop down list appeared for a business issue. This was caused by the Issue list not being populated for the Action-Run test page, and has been resolved.

INC-188882 · Issue 679145

DSS added for configurable asynchronous writes into DDS

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

DSS added for configurable asynchronous writes into DDS An enhancement has been added which will allow DDS writes happening within pxDelayedLearningFlow to happen asynchronously and be configurable per node in order to improve performance. name: dnode/save_dds_async_processing_enabled description: Enable asynchronous processing of records in DDS Dataset save operation. Failures to store individual records will not interrupt operation execution.

External Input setting available on Strategy Batch Performance Test

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

It was not possible to specify the External Input as part of a strategy when using a Batch Performance test. This has been resolved by updating the pzDisplayTestStrategyContext When condition to "true" the so external input selector is properly displayed.

Mapping updated for Primary filter rule with globally optimized strategies

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

A discrepancy was seen in the results when compared between running globally optimized strategies (GOS) and a normal strategy in the Customer Decision Hub. Investigation showed this was caused by a proposition filter rule containing When rules configured with the keyword "Primary", which caused page mappings to fail in GOS. This has been resolved by explicitly populating the primary context for callWhen.

Updated SimpleDateFormat to remove lenient parsing mode

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

When using File Dataset to ingest CSV files with the required Date format set as yyyyMMdd, an error was thrown if the date value provided in a file was in the format '14/04/1971', but a date format such as 14-04-1971 did not produce an error but instead was mapped to a Date value of 00131204. . This has been resolved by disabling the lenient mode of parsing in SimpleDateFormat.

INC-192025 · Issue 680707

Scenario Planner performance improvements

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Scenario planner runs were causing out of memory errors on the dataflow nodes. To resolve this, updates have been made to improve performance. Only relevant information will be kept for decision funnel simulations out of SR pages, the memory footprint of data structures used to aggregate and rollup counts has been reduced, and temporary objects will be released as soon as they are not needed anymore.

INC-192102 · Issue 676361

Performance improvements for stale thread warnings

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

Stale thread warnings were causing performance issues during dataflow run execution. Stale thread/slow component warnings are added as part of the dataflow execution when a processing thread takes more than 5 minutes to process a single dataflow record. The stacktrace of the dataflow thread is added as part of the warning for debugging purposes, but in some scenarios the stacktrace can become very large. This has been resolved by removing the stacktraces from the warning, improving the query logic, and adding the run ID to the exception method to assist if there is an error.

DSS added to handle merges with lower versions of Postgres

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3

After update, executing the batch campaign with volume constraint resulted in the second data flow DF_Wait failing with error message "ERROR: number of columns (1844) exceeds limit (1664)". This was due to the database set’s change (in 8.5) to use the database layer’s merge statement. Prior to that, the logic used "deletes and inserts". Depending on the version of Postsgres, the generated SQL statement for a merge statement is different. The “INSERT … ON CONFLICT … UPDATE” syntax is generated for Postgres 9.5+ AND when there is a PK constraint defined for the DB table. Otherwise, the complex UPSERT statement (old syntax) is generated, as was the case in this issue. This is a known issue in the Postgres server software where it mis-interprets the number of columns involved. i.e., it mistakenly counts the number of columns twice. As a result, the actual maximum columns allowed is only half of the official limit (1664). The same UPSERT statement does not cause the “exceeds limit” exception if there are 832 or fewer columns in the statement. To resolve this, an option has been provided to select between the “original logic” (deletes and inserts) and the “merge statements” logic by way of the DSS “decision/datasets/db/useMergeStatementForUpdates”. Setting “true” will use the merge statement logic, and setting “false” will use deletes and inserts. When the DSS is not defined, the default is "true" and the system will use merge statements in the form preferred by Postgres 9.5+.
