Expanded Grid locking updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When using pyDashboadMyWorkList to show the cases of an operator with Master Detail in Read Only mode, the system was acquiring a lock on the expanded work object. To resolve this, the following changes have been made: * In activity Assign-pyAcquireObject, If the parameter bRODetails is true, do not call acquireWorkObject and do obj-open-by-Handle to get assignment and work page in pyAcquireObject activity. * In activity acquireWorkObject, the parameter skipWorkLock has been removed as acquireWorkObject should always acquire the lock.

UniqueID enhancement for attached files
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When two files with the same name were uploaded by different users simultaneously through Pulse or if a user uploaded two files with the same name across two sessions, whichever file arrived later was overriding the previous one in the system. As a result, the first pulse post ended up with an incorrect file attached. This has been resolved with an enhancement to add an API that appends a uniqueID to the file before uploading to ServiceExport directory.

Enhancements for upgrading in multi-tenant environment
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
Some muti-tenant installations use the same applications or rule instances with the same pzInsKeys for different tenants. This can cause upgrades to time out due to the system fetching all pzInsKeys (which will have duplicates) and working with them in a default batch size of 500 each over 4 threads. This led to the same keys potentially being allocated and processed in different threads, resulting in duplicate processing and timeouts. This has been resolved by updating the select query to fetch the tentantid and pzInskeys in the MT system to avoid duplicate work in multiple threads. In addition, running Generate Declarative indexes fetches the pzinskeys and generates indexes for each record, but before generating, the existing index for the record is deleted and then inserted. Because the delete query to generate the index was not tenant aware, all of the records for the key were deleted for the tenants for that key, but the new index was created only in one tenant. This has been resolved by enhancing the DELETE query to be tenant aware, which will avoid deleting the indexes for all the tenants given an index key.

Resolved buffer overflow for Migration loadDatabase
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
A Rules upgrade failed in the Migration step at loadDatabase stage, involving the move of all the table records from old schema to new schema. This was traced to the inability of Migration to load blob of sizes more than 100 MB, and has been resolved by updating Migration to use byte[] to read the blob content with the help of metadata that contains blob length.

TableRenameUtil hashing improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
During index name generation, the algorithm that was responsible for index name uniqueness was sometimes insufficient and cerated a loop condition. This has been resolved by using a stronger hash algorithm and refactoring the code that could result in a loop.

Check for circular references added to SearchInventoryImpl to prevent recursive call
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
An out of memory error was traced to SearchInventoryImpl infinitely recursing over a clipboard property, where the child property referenced a parent property and resulted in an endless loop. This has been resolved with the addition of a depth check to ensure that the search does not recurse infinitely.

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.
