Removed services check and added warnings for simulations
Resolved in Pega Version 8.6.3
Attempting to run an audience simulation resulted in the error "Running simulations is not possible, because the required services are not available. Contact your system administrator to enable the data flow and real-time data grid services". Investigation showed the @DsmServices.pxHasFunctionalNodes("DataFlow","Batch") function call contained in the 'when' rule pyUnavailableDecisionServices was returning false even if all the nodes were in the cluster and all the DSM Services were in NORMAL status. To resolve this, the services check has been disabled and the simulation run will show a warning or fail if a data flow run is queued for more than 30 secs or if there is an issue with querying the underlying metrics storage.

Stream Registration deprecated and replaced
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5
Previously, Stream Registration, which was added as an extra layer of protection during the display of stream rules, automatically registered any streams being used in the context and checked this registry during reloadSection/reloadHarness calls to prevent Broken Access Control attacks. However, only an alert was thrown and no further action was being taken on it. With platform added support for URL Tampering, Stream Registration is no longer required and has been deprecated. The URL Tampering function has the capabilities to register for auto/non-auto rules and configure whether to display warning or reject the request for all the activities, and not just the stream rules. Note that URL Tampering will do registration/validation only when security/rejectTamperedRequests is explicitly set to true.

Expression Builder updated to suggest proper value tokens
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When defining an input column in a Decision Table rule to evaluate the result of an expression, the Expression Builder suggested that the token '' could be used to plug in the value from the current row of the column into an expression. This was an incorrect recommendation, and would not return the correct values. The correct token to use is . This error was due to the JavaGenerateAPIVersion property missing in the rule data after Rule-form was upgraded to Harness. This property is used to determine the substitute keyword ( or ) based on the version, and is present to support or upgrade decision table for work flow rules prior to 05-02-01. It does not impact the functionality of the feature, but has been changed to give the correct suggestion for .

Refresh context retained when switching tabs in repeating layouts
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.8
When a repeating tabbed layout is configured to include "Refresh other section" functionality to refresh sections within the tab, it worked correctly when the operator created a new tab and performed all the work in that tab. However, if the operator switched to another tab and then returned to the original tab, the refresh other section and any associated activity used the context of the previously opened tab and it appears to the operator as if the action they have just performed has not worked. This was caused by the Refresh Other section not supporting multiple section refresh if the section is in a repeating layout (i.e. the same named section appears multiple times, once in each tab). The system has been updated to refresh ALL the occurrences of the same section in UI to resolve this issue.

Enhancements added to assist in migrating truststore information to new clusters
Resolved in Pega Version 7.1.9
An installation working on development both in the system and with set of trust for Connectors defined inside Pega that were specific to the development server and SOAP endpoint desired to have all of the trust configurations migrated along with the code base when setting up additional environments. Problems occurred during certificate validation that prevented the desired use, but no useful error information was generated. In order to support this function, enhancements have been added to produce an informative exception error in the checkServerTrusted method of CompositeX509TrustManagerwhen a certificate is not trusted, and to ensure that the signer certificates and then each of its intermediate certificates in the certification path are imported to Pega?s IBM WebSphere JVM?s truststore and all WebSphere JVMs participating in SSL communication on the PRPC cluster.
