Data Flow correctly handles table encountering null numeric columns
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
When a data set was created on top of a exposed table which contains some null value in numeric columns, a Data flow executed using that data set used the value '0' instead of the expected null property. This was traced to the Data Flow batch run execution using the DSMClipboardPages, which weren't able to differentiate if a property was present or not and led to null being mapped to 0 in a numeric property. To correct this, the NativeSQLAPI will return null values as empty values when querying a DB and will not use them populate a DSM page or propagate them in the data flow.

Performance tune-ups in DSM
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
Strategy Profiler was showing misleading timing information for Switch, Champion Challenger, Exclusion, and Data Join. This has been fixed. In addition, Strategy Set has been optimized to let it evaluate the customer-specific expressions once per component execution (instead of per SR page) , and it will not clone SR pages if it's unnecessary. The Prioritization shape has also been improved to only prioritize the Top N if that?s configured.

Fixed NPE for Tracer
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
It was not possible to execute strategies if the tracer was turned on. This was failing because the tracer was trying to collect the primary page in XML format from a clipboard page that was missing the implementation to generate the XML. This has been corrected.

Corrected implementation for DataFlow key non-match
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2
If a DataFlow Dataset configured against a Report Definition had a property key name that was not identical to the column name in the database table, the Dataflow failed to execute with error " Incorrect implementation for Report Definition as a data flow source. Property-to-database table column mapping was not applied correctly". The implementation has been fixed to resolve this issue.

Improved cleanup for adm_response_meta_info
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
The adm_commitlog.adm_response_meta_info column family was growing, leading to gradual increase in CPU utilization on the Adaptive Decision Management (ADM) nodes over time. Investigation showed that the compaction on the adm_response_meta_info table was not being triggered by the ADM service, and the compaction did not remove rows that belonged to models that had been deleted. To resolve this, compaction of the adm_response_meta_info table has been moved from the ADM client nodes to the ADM service nodes, which will correctly trigger the compaction on a predefined schedule. The compaction logic has also been refactored to remove rows that belong to models that have been deleted.

Thread contention resolved for InteractionHistoryQuery
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
High thread contention was observed while running Inbound load tests. This was traced to pzLoadInteractionHistory invoking a generated strategy to retrieve ihFields from InteractionHistoryQuery using the getUsedInteractionHistoryFields() method: because this method is synchronized, it caused a bottleneck. To resolve this, the synchronized methods have been replaced with the appropriate data structures.

Section and Paragraph rule types added to Revision Manager
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6
An enhancement has been made to add support for section and paragraph rule types in revision management. With this change, the sections and paragraph rule types can be added to overlay and can be added to change requests and modified.
