Job Scheduler explicitly unlocked after nodes restart
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
If a job scheduler was in running state and the utility nodes were restarted, the background processing nodes were not coming up and resuming as expected and PersistentJobCleanupFactory:PresentMembersJobCleanup was throwing a stale execution exception. Investigation showed locks were not being removed from the database for the job scheduler when the restart was performed (noted in pegadata.pr_sys_locks table), preventing further runs. This has been resolved by adding an explicit lock removal process for this condition.

Clipboard page instance resolution simplified
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
Previous work related to removing duplicate clipboard page creation from the pyInstanceInfoForUpdate list in order to resolve out of memory issues has been further updated to address a missed use case. While finding a matching instance with same className during instance list resolution, fault logic was leading to the same java object instance being updated N times and added N times to a linked list. This caused unnecessary complexity and has been resolved by removing the matching instance logic and instead creating items for each entry individually.

Improved handling for thread resolution issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
Queue Processor/Dataflow was moving to STOPPED state due to failed records in its execution. Investigation showed there was a minor logic issue in the queue processor activity which allowed the Page-Remove step to be called even before the pages were actually created, and this has been resolved by improving the recovery from a cleared ThreadContainer which might cause thread resolution issues.

Connection list API call will be skipped when not configured
Resolved in Pega Version 8.8
An exception was appearing as part of Robotic Desktop Automation (RDA) flow whenever message service host was not configured. This has been resolved by skipping the connection list API call when the message service host is not configured. A specific Pega log and console log messages have also been added.

Implicit privileges do not generate warnings
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2
RARO with implicit privileges was generating warnings that affected the compliance score. There is a particular format for declaring implicit privileges. i.e. Classname:ruleName, and the system has been updated with a check for this so implicit privileges will not be adding any guardrail warnings.

JDBC password handling corrected
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2
After upgrade, a JDBC database connection on WebSphere 8.5/Oracle 11G indicated success on test connection, but a username/password "connection could not be obtained" error was thrown when attempting to save the connection. This was due to the handling of the encrypted password, and has been fixed.

WebSphere deployment guide updated to clarify scope settings
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2
The WebSphere Deployment Guide has been updated to indicate that the scope must be "server". If this is not set correctly in a split schema installation, the defaultSchema namespace bindings are defined at the cell level and will not be picked up at start, and the database user in the jdbc/PegaRULES datasource will not have the necessary privileges to run the system. Please see WAS deployment guides on the PDN for further information.
