Offline.Rulecache UI module capacity increased
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
Clicking the save button on a modal window caused the application to freeze and all the buttons were disabled. This was traced to the pega.offline.rulecache UI module having a default hard limit of 500 rules. Once the hard limit was reached, the system intermittently silently refused caching additional rules depending on the amount of rules packaged or the order in which the rules are loaded to the cache. To resolve this, the system has been updated to only log a console warning once the maximum threshold is reached, allowing the application to operate normally and at the time inform about the potential impact of having too many rules in memory.

Signature Accept callback fires correctly in offline app
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
Clicking on the Accept button in the Pega mobile signature control was not properly calling the necessary pega.ui.signature.acceptSignatureCallback method. This has been resolved by adding code for the Post Success and Failure callback on Signature accept in the offline app.

Handling added to process Actions chunks on multiple nodes
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
If the synching of chunks to a node was interrupted, attempting to resume the remaining chunks resulted in a processing issue if the Load Balancer passed the connection to a different node than was used for the first connection. As an example, if chunks were synched to node "A" and the restarted sync saved the remaining chunks to node "B", when all chunks were synced node "B" incorrectly determined node "A" was actually doing the work and skipped the processing of the chunks on node "B". This resulted in queued chunks being left untouched. To resolve this, the logic has been updated to allow multiple nodes to process the chunks.

Page group property passed correctly for complex questions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
When the Pega Survey Smart shape was used to configure a list of complex set of questions using Question rules and invoked using the Survey shape, the reload system was not passing the subscript value for the Page group property pyQuestionnaire. This caused an Invalid Reference exception and displayed an error pop up for the end user. Investigation traced this to a call to RefreshList to load a section holding pyQuestionnaire(Subscript) page content which was in place as part of a legacy fix but which has since been made unnecessary due to infrastructure changes in the DOM utilities. To resolve this, the ComplexQuestionCheckboxTemplate and pzComplexQuestionCheckBoxTemplateRowDetails section rules have been updated to remove the RefreshList action on checkbox.

Withdraw task notification uses correct email sender
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
When withdrawing a Task, the withdraw email was sent from the default email box instead of the expected Application default email box. This was traced to the 'pyTaskDeleted' (notification name for withdraw task) value not being present, which meant the system fell back to the task 'pyTaskAssigned' notification name. To resolve this, an update has been made to have pyIsPulseNotificationDefinition return true for a pyTaskDeleted notification.

Help information updated for using Elastic Search with Report Definition
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
The support article "Configuring a report definition to run against an Elasticsearch index" has been updated to clarify that the search can pass multiple values with a space in pySearchString as it does OR operation on all the fields, and that filters in the report definition will be used when executing the report directly or when calling the report in the pxRetrieveSearchData activity.https://community.pega.com/knowledgebase/articles/system-administration/85/configuring-report-definition-run-against-elasticsearch-index

Additional diagnostic logging added for ElasticSearch startup issues
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.6
The PyIndexerState was stuck in Starting status during node initialization. This issue could occur if the filesystem became hung due to network level issue while scanning entries from /etc/mtab, resulting in a lock which was not released correctly. In order to better determine which node entry in a cluster may be responsible for the hang, an update has been made which will use a temporary virtual environment to repeat the part of the initialization phase responsible and generate additional logs for debugging. To activate this, the PegaSearch.Diagnostics logger must be set in DEBUG mode. This duplicated virtual initialization will not interrupt the normal initialization.
