Fixed flow line distortion in Process Modeler
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
When clicking through to a subprocess from a parent flow (by clicking the + sign in the blue subprocess shape), flow lines in the subprocess were shown in a distorted fashion. When opening the same flow in a separate tab (by right clicking the blue subprocess shape and selecting Open Flow) the flow lines were correctly painted. This was an issue caused by the different renderings of the flow depending on whether there was a click through to it (with the + on the parent flow?s subprocess shape), or the subflow was opened in a separate tab (with open Flow). After the Process Modeler saved and checked-in the flow, the connector lines were re-drawn in ways that were non-intuitive and hard to interpret due to the edge routing in PM being calculated off incorrect input data that was taking into account shapes that were not represented on the screen. To fix this, the system now ensures the edges are routed without taking into account any shapes not represented on the canvas.

Fixed scrumboard intermittent failure
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
After upgrading, it was seen that the scrumboard would intermittently fail to load, partially displaying and then hanging if the columns did not fit within the window boundaries due to the number of elements. This was traced to an error in the functionality that resizes parts of the scrumboard, and has been fixed.

Documentation updated for altering data type to Timestamp to avoid duplicate data in Decision Hub
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
By default, the pxOutComeTime column has a Date data type in the pr_data_ih_fact table. This may cause duplicate data issues. To resolve this, the 8.5 and 8.6 installation and upgrade guides for Pega Customer Decision Hub have been updated to include a new procedure "Modifying column definitions to use the TIMESTAMP datatype in an Oracle database". Performing this procedure will allow users to avoid the duplicate data issue. All documents are available from the Pega Customer Decision Hub product page.

Adaptive model retry mechanism enabled
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
Adaptive models were missing from the Model Management page as well as in the Prediction studio while similar models for the same proposition, only differing by the Channel name, were visible. This was traced to data not being synchronized between the database and Cassandra. The pegadata.pr_data_adm_factory database table did not contain the record of the missing channel, but Cassandra did. Since the current Cassandra adm_scoringmodel contained model information, the system still believed the model was present. In order to ensure Cassandra and the database table are in sync, an update has been made to enable the retry mechanism "SyncFactoryKeysTask" to create the ADM model in factory table by periodically looking for scoring models without factories or an entry in adm_meta.

Handling added for clearing node killed between assignment and processing
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
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.

Added handling for DSM Services stuck in leaving status after database outage
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.6
During a database outage, the heartbeat would fail and DSM services would eventually try to enter safe mode and stop. As the first step they would try to change the state to LEAVING, but because the database was down saving the LEAVING state failed and the exception was not handled correctly. This resulted in the rest of the stop operation logic not being executed and the service being stuck in LEAVING. To resolve this, an update has been made to ensure the service goes to LEAVING_FAILED if anything fails during the stop operation including when setting state to LEAVING_FAILED. The state LEAVING_FAILED will get flushed to the database eventually when it comes back up. This will allow the aggregation service to start from the LEAVING_FAILED state and recover by itself after a database outage.
