Documentation updated to reflect MaxRecords blank value = 0
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
The developer help for the Max Records field on the Schedule tab of the Agents rule form states "If this field is blank, the default value is 50.". In actuality, a blank value in Max Records behaves the same as a value of 0, i.e. "process all entries in its queue before sleeping". This was a documentation error, and the help topic in question has been updated to reflect the actual results of the blank field.

Entropy pool explicitly coded for UNIX/Linux Oracle installations
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
When running a new install on an Oracle database in a UNIX environment, install was failing repeatedly at the same point when attempting to import one of the application bundle components. This issue was traced to the way the newer versions of the Oracle JDBC driver gather entropy by defaulting to the use of /dev/random. When running in an environment where there this is not a lot of noise, the entropy pool will eventually be empty and the connection will be reset. Earlier versions of the Oracle JDBC driver did not see this issue. To resolve this, in the event that a deployment is being performed on a UNIX/Linux platform using an Oracle database, the -Djava.security.egd=file:///dev/urandom will be specified whenever a java utility is started.

Migration script checks for compressed data before inflating
Resolved in Pega Version 7.2.1
While upgrading, the migrate script was failing while trying to create the tables.txt file content. This was traced to data handling. During engine start-up, a check is performed to determine whether bytes are compressed or not, and inflate those that are compressed so they can be read. The migration utility did not have this check, and by default went ahead and inflated. This caused exceptions when encountering BLOBs, as a BLOB contains both CompressedBytes and UnCompressedBytes. A check has now been added to the migration script so inflation is only done as needed.
