Support expanded for postgres versions and logging improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
While trying to import data into the Data Type Tables using a CSV file and selecting the 'Add or Update' option, an error appeared and the import failed. Using 'Add or Delete' worked as expected. This was traced to the import of data failing for postgres version 10.x because UseMerge for postgres did not use merge if the version of Postgres was not 9. Support has now been added for versions of Postgres higher than 9 in SQLGeneratorPostgres.useMerge(), and logging has been enhanced to improve triaging issues such as this.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2

This has been resolved by modifying the artificatory URL generation to properly encode special characters during file download.

Performance improvement for queries on Kafka partitions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
Even though there were multiple dataflow nodes available in the cluster, all requests were going to single node and causing system slowness. Investigation showed there was a queue processor rule that included the pxPartitionKey attribute which forced all records to be sent to a single partition by Kafka producers. This attribute has been removed.

Corrected case-mismatch when using Top Ranked in a subreport
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
Incorrect SQL Generation was seen when using the combination of Union ALL (more than 1 distinct tables) and Rank in Sub report. The sub-report had a ranking logic to pull records with greatest “pxUpdateDateTime”, but when executing the main report definition rule, Oracle responded with the error "There was a problem getting a list." Investigation showed that the query generated was not able to match the columns because they were given as pxUpdateDateTimeR1 in one and PXUPDATEDATETIMER1 in another. This only happened when display Top Ranked was selected in the subreport, and was due to Oracle being case-sensitive. This has been resolved by updating the system to get the correct column alias for rank in a subreport.

ClusterAndDBCleaner repaired
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.2
An error in the logic order of events caused a compilation error for pyClusterAndDBCleaner, leading to old records created by the system/node utilities to not be automatically removed as expected. This has been corrected.

Handling updated for queue processor locks
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
The Final activity mentioned in the processing epilog of the Service File rule was not being consistently called from File Listener, causing some of the cases to become stuck and not continue to the next stage. Investigation showed that if the lock was held by the queue processor requestor, the system was unable to obtain the lock but still proceeded to update the LogServiceFile page and persist it. This resulted in overwriting changes made on the LogServiceFile page by the requestor, resetting the completed-batches-count set back to 0. To resolve this, RuleServiceFile -> updateLSFBatchCounts() will call the overloaded lockAndLoad() method in LogServiceFile that accepts a parameter called lockAttempts. This will attempt to obtain a lock for a given number of times before throwing an exception.

SortPageList method updated for Obj-Sort
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Sorting page lists backed by a node level datapage using Obj-Sort was causing a ConcurrentModificationException. This has been resolved by updating the SorterImpl.sortPageList method to use java7CollectionsSort instead of collectionsSortWithInferenceEngineDisabled.

Decision table query performance improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Work done previously to improve performance by preventing the decision rule from being treated as a custom rule has been further augmented by preventing the standard Declarative Rules from being treated as Custom Rules while building the Declarative Cache.

Zip compression added for tracer XML
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
After upgrading from Pega 7 to Pega 8, attempting to save and download a trace session would run for a time before pausing and displaying the message "Operation failed. Network error". Investigation showed the tracer was generating a very large XML file which was consuming the heap and causing the issue. To resolve this, an update has been made that will reduce memory usage by using GZip compression on the file. The new behavior will be to always zip tracer XML by default.
