Enhancement added for node heartbeat recovery process
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
Nodes were not showing up in the admin portal even though they were up and running and could be seen in the pr_sys_statusnodes table. The exception "An exception was encountered while invoking the cluster membership listener callback" was seen. All nodes became visible again after multiple restarts. The root cause was traced back to a temporary database connectivity problem. The database itself was fine according to database monitoring reports, but a network problem, a slow database query, or another issue prevented Pega from establishing a connection for more than a minute. An enhancement has been made to resolve this: if a node becomes unhealthy due to the service registry missing due to a failed heartbeat, the heartbeat will try to recover after 60 seconds and keep trying every 30 seconds until it succeeds.

Corrected SAML SSO error
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
After opening a case from the Pega-FCM portal or after logging in from SSO, closing the Pega window and opening it again resulted in the error "Unable to process the SAML WebSSO request : Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint %27pr_data_saml_requestor_PK%27. Cannot insert duplicate key in object". This was a missed use case that happens only under the old SAML configuration, and has been resolved by removing a when condition that checks for stepstatus fail for the pySAMLwebSSOAuthentication activity.

Export to Excel working for reports with "Display values across columns"
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
Attempting to use Export to Excel when "display values across columns" was checked resulted in a null pointer error. This was traced to a null page being passed to pzRDExportWrapper, and has been resolved by adding a check for the primary page If it is null, the step page will be used.

Keystore certificate alias updated to support mixed case names
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
The Java Keystore stored aliases only in lower case letters, but it accepted uppercase letters also during retrieval. This was causing the error "No certificate found in truststore : Azure AD SSOIDPCertStore with Alias : CN=Microsoft Azure Federated SSO Certificate" when the names didn't match. To resolve this, the keystore layer has been modified to support upper case letters in the certificate alias.

Login button hidden after click
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.5
When the login button was clicked fast several times, intermittently the login would fail with the blue screen and "Security violation attempting to access requestor" error in the logs. To resolve this, on click of the login button will be hidden to prevent firing multiple login requests.
