Improved hotfix detection
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
Migrating from ML6 to ML7 was failing with an error reporting the system contained hotfixes that were generated after the release of ML7. This was due to the ML Readiness step incorrectly identifying pre-7.1 rules as having been updated after the upgrade to 7.1.6. This happened when the revalidate and save was run after the release of ML7, which updated the pxUpdateDateTime for the rules in question and led to them being caught by the validation. This was meant to catch hotfixes, and the handling has been improved to avoid this error.

Create KeyRing updated for split schema
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
If a command line script is configured (viz. keyringGen.sh) to encrypt user passwords for prconfig.xml databases using Keyring utility, a prconfig.xml could have three database entries but the keyring tool only prompted for two databases and did not allow encrypting password for the user for the third database. The prconfig.xml file requires very specific location information to run: to resolve this, the variables to hold schema name in case of split schema configuration have been added.

Enabling out-of-the-box Security Policies now redirects immediately
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When enabling out-of-the-box Security Policies, it was not immediately redirecting to the change password screen but instead requiring the timeout interval to expire before redirect happened. This has been corrected.

Added tenantID checking for multi-tenant import of access groups
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When attempting to overwrite an existing access group by importing the Client Access groups in the tenant layer, an error was generated and the access groups were not overwritten. This occurred when the SQLs were not Tenant-qualifying for operator records but were being imported into a tenant; as a result, operator record updates were marked as inserts. To correct this, the behavior has been updated to query for current tenantId and always tenant-qualify the query if it's an overridable instance and not in a shared context.

Large flow handling improved for IE8
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.7
When opening a large flow in IE8 which includes multiple sub flows, a long-running script warning is displayed. This is caused by too many calls being executed at once on IE8, and has been remedied by turning on the asyncProcessing parameter for IE8.
