Reworked destination assumptions for child dataflows
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3.1
When activating a Real time data flow run containing a Stream dataset as input which was then output to two child dataflows containing different event strategies, an IllegalArgumentException error appeared. This was traced to the pzDataFlowContainsEventStrategy activity assuming that the last shape had "Destination" in the ID in addition to an error obtaining the class. This has been fixed by properly setting the KVS type: the DataFlowRunConfig.getKeyValueStoreType() will not return NONE but default instead, and the pzDataFlowContainsEventStrategy now Iterates through all subflows and fixed secondary destination name.

Fixed UnsupportedOperationException from decision table
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3.1
When using embedded properties (e.g. .OfferData.Action) within a decision table, an UnsupportedOperationException appeared on the DSMClipboardProperty if it was executed via a Strategy rule. The issue was with a function being not implemented within DSMClipboardPage, and has been fixed.

Property filter execution updated for better backward chaining
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3.1
in cases where the strategy is cyclically called and backward chaining is enabled, the declarative network was looking to load the value of a property which did not exist, leading to an error. The evaluateWhen function in the proposition filter rule execution has been modified to reset backward chaining.

Improved performance for Proposition updates
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3.1
While updating propositions through DSM portal it was observed that the thread count got very high while overall performance became degraded. This happened in Pega versions where the propositions are data instances and not rules. The issue was traced to the Proposition cache getting reloaded from the database table in a synchronized block; all of the strategy execution threads were waiting until the reloading completed despite strategy reading the propositions from the cache. To resolve this, the system will reload the proposition cache from the database table in the thread where the pulse message is being processed when the node receives the pulse notification. Thus other strategy execution threads will not be blocked and continue reading propositions from the cache.

Cassandra fixes for AIX systems
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3.1
A Cassandra node start failure on some AIX environments was traced to a condition for checking whether Java version 1.7 and 1.8 in file cassandra-env-AIX.sh were present in the dnode-7.2.1.jar. This check is not necessary as the same check is already performed in Cassandra.java class, and it has been removed from the cassandra-env-AIX.sh script. Additionally a new system setting dnode/overwrite_cassandra_env has been introduced to allow disabling replacing cassandra-env.sh script with cassandra-env-AIX.sh (which is normally done on AIX systems).

Cassandra support enhanced for CQL 3 data types
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3.1
The connector was unable to read a date-filed value from Cassandra to Pega Dateonly or varchar datatype, instead failing with an exception. As a result, data was not readable via connect-Cassandra if that table had new column types like (date,time,tinyint,smallint). To resolve this, data type support has been added for the new types in CQL 3.3 (smallint,tinyint,date,time).

Read operations updated for Datastax 3.1.x use
Resolved in Pega Version 7.3.1
In the 3.1.x Datastax driver reads are no longer retried by default. Therefore, the read operations have now been explicitly marked as idempotent to force the Datastax driver to retry timed out reads.
