Pick Values modal updated for deprecated list view handling
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Pick values were not displaying in the menus below Case Management-> Tools -> My Work, including "Work entered by me", "Work by workbasket", and "Work resolved by me recently". This was due to the use of deprecated list views: the pick values modal was failing to show and hide the busy indicator because the indicator now uses jQuery, but list view does not include jQuery. In order to resolve this, the equivalent Report Definition pyEnteredByMe has now been added under the navigation rule : pzProcessAndCaseRulesMainMenu.

Attachment drag drop searches only current Ajax context
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When the Interaction for customer service was open and more than 1 task from the sidebar was open, the drag and drop zone was missing on any subsequent Task/Cases past the first. In an Ajax container scenario, getElementByID js was searching in all the containers because they were present in DOM, and it was losing context. To resolve this, the code has been updated to only search in the current context when using an Ajax container.

Updated retry logic for S3 AddAttachmentFromEmail
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When using the AddAttachmentFromEmail activity with S3 repositories, performing an obj-save on the data-workattach-file page executes a deferred save while also saving the file into the repository. if the data was inserted into S3 successfully but encountered an issue when saving the related data-work-attach-file page, the system was trying to call the save operation again. This tried to insert the duplicate attachment again to S3, causing an error on that side of the process. To resolve this, the duplicate Obj-Save functionality in AddAttachmentFromMail Activity has been removed.

Custom attachment category parameter passed to dropdown
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Attempting to use the out-of-the-box “Attachments control” which was configured at design time to use a custom category where both the custom category and the section class were in the same work class resulted in the attachment category dropdown defaulting to “File” instead of the custom category. Investigation showed that the custom attachment category name configured on the control was missing in one of the pre-processing activities sequence. To resolve this, the activity Work-.pzInitAttachContent and the initAttachmentPage activity have been updated to pass the custom attachment category parameter.

Hazelcast upgraded to resolve node startup issue
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
Post data upgrade, the ADM tier failed to start and the error "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Node failed to start!" appeared. This was traced to a dormant bug in Hazelcast 3.11 that caused starting nodes to fail when the Hazelcast master node was shutting down, which was exposed by recent Pega changes made to enable parallel restarts of nodes in Cloud environments. Hazelcast delivered a fix for the parallel restart problem and the hotfixed jar has been merged into the platform.

Resolved Oracle thread deadlock for Merge SQL
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
After starting a large cluster and running it for a couple of days, Oracle Deadlocks started to appear due to resource contention during MERGE SQL execution on the PR_INDEX_REFERENCE database table. The "ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for resource" ERROR occur continuously every 10 minutes during the "MasterForNewAgents" Daemon run. All JVMs are impacted by the ERROR/Deadlock. Investigation showed that even though the identified / problematic Data-Agent_queue instances were disabled for PegaAESRemote, the MERGE SQLs continued to fire. To resolve this, an update has been made so the system will skip the copy of rule reference property from RAQ, while creating DAQ.

JobScheduler DST handling updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
When the locale being used changed out of Daylight Savings Time, scheduled jobs did run at the same local time as before but instead ran an hour earlier than expected. Investigation showed that jobscheduler calculated the next runtime based on the time difference from the cluster reference time and current time in milliseconds, and this offset in milliseconds was added to next run time. Since the cluster was started in DST, the job was running on same time due to the time difference. To resolve this, the system will use a calculation offset and set hours/minutes to nextRunTime object so that calendar lib handles daylight savings.

Added expiration for orphaned tracers
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.8
After tracing a REST service, the tracer was persisting but not showing in the requestor list from Admin studio. The operator shown in the error did not have access to the system anymore, and other users were not able to trace the service rule. Trying to clear the requestors in all the nodes using API POST /nodes/{nodeID}/pools/requestor/clear also did not resolve the issue. To address this, a distributed rule watch expiration has been added.
