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.

PropertyToColumnMap made more robust
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
The DF_ProcessEmails dataflow was intermittently failing with a StageException error. This was traced to schema changes being propagated asynchronously by system pulse, which seem to have caused PropertyToColumnMap to cache stale schema. To resolve this, if the property mapping is not found the first time, the system will make a second attempt to get the mapping. Additional logging has also been added for better diagnostics.

Behavior made consistent between SSA and legacy engines
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
There was a behavioral disparity between the legacy execution engine and the SSA engine where the latter was not creating a new page when the index was one above the size of the page list. This has now been corrected in order to make the SSA behavior fully backward compatible with the legacy engine, i.e. a new blank page will be added to the list if the index is one above the size of the list.

Handling improvements for commit logs
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
The ADM commit log logs the number of unconsumed messages that are going to expire. In certain circumstances, it can include unconsumed messages that are not going to expire in the count. Because they are not expired and removed, the environment was running out of disk space due to the ADM commitlogs table growing larger than expected and performance issues were seen. To resolve this, a new adm_commitlog.adm_responses_commit_log_date_tiered table has been created, with a default_time_to_live of 24 hours. DateTieredCompactionStrategy has been set with max_window_size_seconds as 24hrs and tombstone_compaction_interval as 24hrs.

Performance improvements for Test Strategy data flow
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
In the Test Strategy panel under Single case -> "Settings", selecting the "Data flow" option and choosing CustomerData dataflow was taking an excessive amount of time to run on a system with an extremely large database. To improve performance, two areas have been addressed: 1) the default behavior for record key suggestions in the test panel has been modified to collect only the ID as the additional data is not necessary at that time; 2) a DSS has been added that will opt out of reading and collecting the customer IDs in order to minimize data stored on the clipboard.

Strategy handling updated for very large systems using IH summary
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
When a Strategy in a Real-time dataflow used IH Summary on a system with more than 5000 groups for one eventKey, the message "Error retrieving aggregates from Cassandra KVS" intermittently appeared. Investigation showed that if the number of result rows was greater than the FETCH_SIZE (set to 5000), it meant another read to Cassandra was required and an exception was generated. To resolve this, updates have been made so that instead of returning maps, the system will return iterators and change them to map on the calling thread.

Simulation can take Data flow type as destination
Resolved in Pega Version 8.1.9
Support has been added for Data flow functionality as simulation target and data transform in simulation input.
