Added WebSphere Liberty Profile to BaseEnvironment.guessServerEnvironment
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
While trying to add a node to Decision data store nodes via Designer Studio > Decisioning > Infrastructure > Service, the error "Service DDS:** java.lang.NullPointerException" was seen, and it was not possible to add a node or save any configuration. This was caused by an incomplete profile for Websphere Liberty, causing the com.pega.pegarules.priv.context.BaseEnvironment.guessServerEnvironment() API to return 'unknown' as the answer when WLP was used. This has been fixed, and the API will return "Websphere" for Websphere liberty profile as well.

Auto populate disabled during redux page conversion to prevent concurrent modification exception
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
Running a standalone data page sourced from a look up of a class was failing sporadically with a concurrent modification exception. The Data page was backed by redux pages: this meant that when the page fetched from data source was converted to redux page, it was iterating through all properties in the mContent of the page and trying to convert those to redux properties. During this process, when any auto populate property was encountered it was getting triggered and modifying the mContent, resulting in a change in iterator. As a result, when the Iterator was trying to fetch the next element, the concurrent modification exception was thrown. To resolve this issue, auto populate has been disabled during redux page conversion to avoid unnecessary problem during data page load.

Added support for JSON mapping of deep nested pagelist objects
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
An exception occurred when using a JSON data transform in the service activity to map the clipboard data to JSON on the third level of a structure formed as Pagelist-->page-->pagelist. To resolve this, support has been added for nested pagelist mapping with deep nesting of objects (configured for one sided actions) and arrays.

Support added for Multiple Set-Cookies in Connect REST
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
When using a REST connector, the service returned multiple cookies as separate Set-Cookie response headers, but only the last header value received was stored when using pzResponseHeaderMap on the parameter page. In order to support this use, changes have been made to store multiple header values from Connect-REST responses.

Visibility on client check removed to enable Pulse on click
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
When Pulse was configured on click of a icon, the comment section was not visible. Investigation showed that at the time of DOM load, pyMessage property was not available in the DOM because 'Run visibility condition on client' was checked by default. Visibility on client checks have been removed to resolve this issue.

Corrected requestor status flag for direct map
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
Numerous "Unable to create requestor" alerts were logged. This was traced to an error in HttpAPI where after retrieving the requestor from the internal requestor map directly, the requestor creation status flag was not set properly. This caused last action to post that alert instead of the correct notice of "existing requestor retrieved". This has been resolved so the flag reflects the correct status.

Local UUID cache will be updated when merge event is detected
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
Cluster-related issues were seen in multiple production clusters. For some nodes in the cluster the Cluster Management screen showed all expected nodes with valid Node IDs displayed, and on other nodes the Cluster Management screen showed the node ID of itself, SERVER@localhost:5701. On an impacted node displaying the wrong ID, the Node Information landing page did not work and displayed the error "Unable to execute job on ." Multiple advanced agents running on nodes in the affected clusters, both with correct and incorrect IDs, also failed with a similar error "Unable to execute job on <node's job id>". This was traced to a merge performed after a split brain. To resolve this, the code has been updated to handle merge events: when the node UUID is changed as part of a split brain recovery, the local UUID cache will be updated when the merge event is detected.

Improved upgrade handling for tables using classes with property references
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
After upgrade, some page property values were blank and exposed database columns did not contain the values. Investigation showed that the reference properties did not have context and hence column population was not able to determine their value. To resolve this, instead of doing column population for all the columns, the system will identify classes that have property references and that are being optimized as part of upgrade process and maintain a list of specific columns to update.

Enhancement added to modify URL encryption for load testing
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
An enhancement has been added which allows conditionally modifying URL encryption for load testing. This uses the flag crypto/useportablecipherforurlencryption: if true, a portable hardcoded key is used to encrypt the URLs and if false, a dynamically generated key per thread/requestor is used to encrypt the URL.

Column population honors thread count of 1
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.7
The thread count parameter in the column population activity was not being honored, causing repeated deadlocks when trying to populate columns. Investigation showed that the ExposeCols process did not honor the thread count when it was 1 (the default is 4), and this has been fixed by adding the necessary code so that if the thread count is 1, it will not run in multhreaded mode.
