Null check added to resolve addmapcasetomap error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
Using a createcase flow shape to create child cases by looping on a page list on the parent case resulted in pzaddmapcasetomap throwing an exception related to the activity pzLoadCaseHierarchyWrapper in step 5. This was traced to a page being removed after the list of pages was received in findPageByHandle, and has been resolved by adding a null check.

Resolved putting JMS Message through JMS Listener interface
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
When using MS Listener integrated into Pega running on WebSphere Liberty, the listener was running correctly and able to consume JMS Messages. The JMS Listener ruleform provided options to browse and put JMS messages. However, when attempting to put a message into the destination queue, an error occurred. Investigation showed that if the resource lookup was using 'Resource references' on JMS Listener, the naming context was initialized with a null hashtable. This has been corrected by modifying AddJMSMessage and GenericViewJMSMessage to initialize the naming context with the default constructor RefreshJMSMessages to set JNDIServerName and pass the current parameter page when calling GenericViewJMSMessage.

Class Loader cache values wrapped with WeakReference for improved cleanup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
Out Of Memory exceptions due to Metaspace were observed on Web tier instances running with a max Metaspace size of 2GB. Investigation showed that in PRClassLoaderDB, mLoaderCache values were wrapped with a SoftReference. To resolve this, the Class Loader cache values will be wrapped with a WeakReference, allowing the cache to free memory when it is no longer needed. JVM options has also been added to switch types of References being used if there is a preference.

QP exception handling improved
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
There is currently a configurable maximum size limit for QP items of 5MB. If the message size exceeded 5 MB, the message failed to be enqueued to Kafka, but still ended up in the delayed message table where it remained. This caused issues with pzDelayedQueueProcessorSchedule JS as a result. To resolve this, the system has been updated to better detect Kafka errors related with message size and move any corrupted item to the broken message queue with the appropriate message attached.

Alerting features added for Listeners
Resolved in Pega Version 8.2.7
An enhancement has been added for Email Listener alerts. At the end of each listener's processing cycle, the system will determine the average processing time per message, the total processing time of the listener, the total unread messages count, and total number of messages processed. In each AESRemote agent run, this data will be published to the PDC, where it will be analyzed and any necessary alerts raised.

Timeout for node to join cluster increased and made configurable
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
Hazelcast timeouts were causing application restart failures. This was traced to a rare case scenario of heavy processing on the primary node causing the new node to not be able to join the cluster within the designated 5 minute threshold. To compensate for this, the default time to join has been increased to 9 minutes and a prconfig setting has been added to configure the time setting.

Automatic agent restart added for temporary connection issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
An agent that was stopped due to an issue with the database connection did not recover when the connection was reestablished. To resolve this, updates have been made that will handle an automatic restart of the agents when there are temporary connection issues.
