Tomcat v7 and v8 each given dedicated implementation sections in the guide

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2

Due to differences between Tomcat 7 and Tomcat 8 in implementing JDBC resources, the Tomcat versions have been split into separate sections in the installation guide. In addition, the edits necessary for the context.xml file have been updated for clarification.

Agent Interval setting documentation updated

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2

On the Agents rule form there are two separate Interval areas where you can specify how often agents should run. Previously, the help for this rule form indicated that a value of at least 5 (seconds) should be entered and that a value below 5 would generate a validation error. However, the default settings only support a value of 30 seconds or greater unless a custom setting is created. The help file has been updated to clarify this. The following is the custom setting necessary for values below 30 seconds:

Installation guide updated for

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2

The 7.2.1 installation guides incorrectly showed the edits needed to the context.xml file. In "Configuring Tomcat by editing the context.xml file", steps 4 and 5 are incorrect and should have included the type="java.lang.String" specification (similar to steps 6 and 7). The following pages have been updated: tomcat oracle p35 tomcat db2luw p32 tomcat mssql p30 tomcat postgreSQL p33

Documentation corrected for connection properties with WAS 8.5.5.7 and MSSQL 2014

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2

The case specified in the install guide for including the "SelectMethod" and "SendStringParameterasUnicode" connection properties was incorrect, causing poor performance in the import process when using WAS 8.5.5.7 and MSSQL 2014. The documentation has been corrected.

JBoss shutdown errors resolved

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2

During a controlled shutdown, database-level exceptions occurred and a hard reset was required. This was traced to the container not correctly detecting dependencies, leading to JBoss prematurely terminating JMS and JDBC resources that were needed during Pega shutdown. Pega applications on JBoss now contain information to ensure the application server understands that this resource has dependent processes and the lookup-name (with the JBoss specific namespace) is maintained correctly to make sure it isn't cleaned up prematurely. The web.xml file has also been updated to include a lookup-name in the entry for ResourceRef_1 to handle cases where the datasources are injected using CLI scripts after JBoss is started and before Pega is deployed.

Index reference synchronizer upgraded to capture previously shipped rulesets during upgrade

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2

During upgrade, some sites were seeing an SQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException error. This was caused by the presence of rulesets (e.g. PegaUVU, PredictiveAnalytics-UI) that were once shipped but are no longer, but that have rules that are still shipped. To correct this problem, the index reference synchronizer has been upgraded to capture those previously shipped rulesets.

Scheduled report cleanup error resolved

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2

Exceptions were thrown in the logs by the scheduled reports task when trying to clean up the previous day's generated attachment reports. This was due to the name exceeding the length restriction on the property (60 characters) and failing validation, and has been fixed by truncating the field.

SR-A87928 · Issue 255259

Fixed cataloging for v5 hotfixes

Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.2

Recent modifications to obtaining catalogs for supporting additional products (i.e. frameworks) caused a regression in being able to check dependency information on v5 hotfixes, preventing DL files from being created for them. This has been fixed.

Updated upgrade handling for migrating work objects

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6

After upgrading from Pega 6.2 to 8.3, the work migrated work objects were missing SLAs due to missed entries in the assignment tables (PC_ASSIGN_WORKLIST/ PC_ASSIGN_WORKBASKET) . The SLA was firing, but the processing failed due to the fact the runtime could not resolve a 'AddHistoryPage' library function. In this case, multiple upgrades of the application dating back to Pega 4 resulted in the runtime context containing older ruleset versions in higher ruleset versions, hiding the underlying Pega 8 version of the rule. For releases prior to Pega 7.3, Rule-Application was stored in pr4_rule and will be migrated to pr4_rule_application during upgrades. However, since Context Upgrade is run before Optimize Newly Exposed Columns, the pyDependsOnName won't always be populated. To resolve this, the system will filter based on the value in the blob rather than the exposed column so there will be a value regardless of the upgrade-from version.
