Simplified default reference time calculations
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.1
After a job scheduler was configured to run at Start time = 21:00:00 for Time zone = Europe/London, the scheduler determined 20:00:00 as the next start time. This was due to the calculation for the next start time using the time zone offset calculation pattern for the date and time stored in System-Runtime-Context.pxCreateDateTime, which had difficulty with changes to the time zone definition implemented in the time between the given date and today (meaning the current time) such as daylight savings time. To resolve this, the default reference time from System Runtime Context will be 'now' instead of Date(0).

Modified timestamp query used by ClusterAndDBCleaner
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
The job pyClusterAndDBCleaner was failing with the error "ORA-01861: literal does not match format string". This was traced to the sub-activity pzClearOldQueueProcessorBrokenMessages which was not able to remove broken items with encryption in an upgraded environment due to an incorrect timestamp format passed to the Oracle database. This has been resolved by modifying the query to use a timestamp built using INativeSqlBuilder which will include only the information necessary for the deletion of the item.

Enabled turning off general metrics when queue processing metrics are disabled
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
A memory leak related to QPGeneralMetrics was consuming heap and causing performance issues. Investigation showed queue processor metrics were gathered even when disabled. To resolve this, turning off "General Metrics Handler" while turning off the QPGeneralMetrics has been enabled. Queue processors should now skip the process of collecting general metrics while running activities. This will prevent storing unused (and uncleared) metrics in memory and prevent heap exhaustion.

Improved handling for thread resolution issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.7.3
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.

Repaired Tracer use with Google Chrome
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5
After running Tracer while using Chrome, closing it and trying to run another resulted in an error indicating "Cannot Launch multiple tracer sessions for a requestor". This was identified as a bug with Google Chrome Versions greater than 70 and was caused by Chrome deprecating the use of sync XHR on page dismissal, and has been resolved by modifying the system to use a beacon API instead.
