Text retrieval for deprecated "Query" button updated for universal browser support
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
The Firefox popup window provided by the Product rule when querying "Individual Instances to Include" failed to transpose the selected rule information back into the Product ruleform when the OK button was clicked. This was due to the use of the deprecated "Query" button, which does not have support for all browsers, to launch the ListView. To handle this, the node text retrieval method in DataInstancesQueryScript has been updated to use the 'textContent' function (compatible with all browsers) instead of the previous 'innerText'.

Added handling for null rollback info in hotfix autocommit
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
If AutoCommit was selected while installing a hotfix, the auto-commit would fail and leave the hotfix in an Uncommitted state if there were dependent hotfixes where changes were covered by the parent and the child was superseded after installing the parent. Manual commitment of the hotfix worked as expected. This was an edge case where the older hotfix did not get rollback information saved since its components were already installed or superseded, and AutoCommit has been updated to handle this missing information.

Upgrade Assistant enhanced to better resume interrupted process
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
If the system suffered a crash during upgrade, IUA was incorrectly identifying the DB as having completed the upgrade and would import outstanding rules based on the perceived Database BLOB version. This led to a storage-type mismatch between Prod and all lower environments, and BIX jobs would fail due to not being upgraded. An enhancement has been added to the Upgrade Assistant to correctly resume an interrupted upgrade process.

Alter Script generates correct SQL for Oracle db
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
During installation, an incorrect Alter Script was being generated while importing the JAR file due to a missing check on the 'required' XML attribute for dbtype Oracle to decide whether it should be null or not null. This has been corrected to honor the 'required' attribute and accordingly the generated SQL will be appended with null/not null string.

Web Tier busy threads released on timeout
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.4
Tomcat Web Tier Busy Threads were not being correctly released, causing stability and performance problems that included health check pings not receiving a thread to service the request so the node was marked as bad, users were quiesced, and the node replaced. Investigation showed the 'put' on the blocking queue did not time out when the queue was full and waited indefinitely, keeping the thread blocked. To resolve this, the system will use 'offer' on the blocking queue instead of 'put' to force thread release on timeout. In addition, debug logs have been added to understand when the offer (or Put) does not succeed and the state of the queue that is causing this issue; the debug logs for class com.pega.pegarules.session.internal.serverpush.RoboticAutomationImpl should be enabled only if the thread busy issue is observed and for limited time window while actively debugging.

Resolved Push Node Daily Information exception
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.4
The "Push Nodes Info Daily" agent was generating an exception on each of the nodes. This has been resolved by enhancing the PegaAESRemote code to handle the exception and get the node info locally, then push it to the console when it is not able to get it via the cluster management API.
