Refinements made to MarkerNode memory use
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
Significant memory usage can be observed when data join in strategies are missing the join conditions. E.g., when the primary source in the strategy can have up to 300 or even more propositions, the join without the join condition would perform a cartesian product with possibly up to 400 or even more records returned. This may cause performance degradation. To guard against this, an update has been made that seeks to prevent repetitive markers being accumulated under a MarkerNode while trying not to rely on any implementation of equality and hashCode for individual marker implementations.

Unneeded MBean startup warning removed
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
After upgrade, Catalina logs indicated the error "WARN com.pega.dsm.dnode.api.prpc.service.monitoring.MBeanDSMService - Service DataFlow doesn't implement Monitoring operation". This was due to a flaw in the way the data flow DSM service was initialized in client mode. The exception itself was not a problem and did not impact functionality, but the client initialization has been modified to remove the warning.

Declaratives disabled during startup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
Declaratives firing before the engine is fully up can lead to null pointer errors. In order to avoid this condition, declaratives will be disabled during startup so that unnecessary operations can be avoided and system can be started faster.

Handling added for clearing node killed between assignment and processing
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
An Offer flow was not resuming after it expired according to the wait shape. Investigation traced this to partitions which were assigned to a dead node in NEW state where they were not picked up by the dataflow. The problem was only encountered in the unusual situation when a dataflow node was killed in the brief period of time between the assignment and the processing, and has been resolved by adding an update which will clear unknown new assigned partitions for the batch run health task.

Localization added to DelegateDescription
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Localization was not working correctly for the description of a delegated rule due to pyDelegeteDescription being defined with a non-localized Property value. This has been resolved by localizing the property value for pyDelegeteDescription.

Updated entity attachment extraction tokenizers
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
After creating an entity extraction model, it was seen that one of the entities worked when there was a space after the semicolon but the detection was not working if there was no space. This has been resolved by updating the Tokenizers with extra examples to address tokenization when ":" is present between two words without any spaces.

Resolved error for custom relative dates
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
An error was seen when parsing the [Date Property] [is before/after] [Last/Next x days] while using a custom amount of number of days in Customer Decision Hub (CDH). This was due to the system not supporting the [Last/Next x days] feature for SSA, but only detecting this during parsing for the prefixed values for Proposition Filters and not custom values. As the parser did not realize the construct referring to the relative date was not supported, it created an SSA that caused an exception during execution. This has been resolved.

Actuals sync clears data from cache and persistence
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
When sync attempted to clear the existing data from Actuals before copying data from the interaction history, the partition was cleared from the cache but not from persistence. IH data that was then copied to the same partition time ranges had new field descriptors created that did not match the format of the old data in persistence. As a result, when a query triggered the loading of such a partition, the mix of data with the old and new formats caused the load to fail. This has been resolved by updating the system to ensure the data is deleted properly from both the cache and persistence.

Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
When running the proposition filter rule, no drop down list appeared for a business issue. This was caused by the Issue list not being populated for the Action-Run test page, and has been resolved.
