Corrected tooltip evaluation for multiselect
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.3
After adding help text for a multiselect help icon with overlay on hover field, the value was not being sourced. Changing to a different type of help text or control type worked as expected. This was due to an error in case sensitivity, using pyToolTip when it should have been pyTooltip, and has been corrected.

Fluid Overlay displays as expected in Firefox
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.3
After upgrade, using the Overlay format "Fluid" to perform the screening matches task in CLM using Firefox had an overlay that covered the entire screen but was missing the scrollbar to manage the content. This has been resolved by adding changes to support dynamic content (with scrollbar) for center overlay.

RemovePrivateBlockedAndWithdrawnRAQs updated to avoid exception
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
If the method removePrivateBlockedAndWithdrawnRAQs() (present on the AgentRuleUtils.java class) had both the "ignore personal rulesets containing checked out files" and "ignore "Blocked or Withdrawn agent" conditions set, raqsItr.remove(); ran twice and resulted in a java.lang.IllegalStateException. This could lead to undesired outcomes such as agents not showing up properly. To correct this, the code has been refactored to avoid running raqsItr.remove(); more than the necessary number of times.

Processed in last hour generated correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
After upgrade, the 'Processed in last hour' for pyFTSIncrementalIndexer (or any other queue processor) did not show the totals processed. This was traced to an error in a declare expression rule, and has been corrected.

Queue processor handling updated
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
After upgrade, the queue processors were not processing all the items in the queue, however the value under the 'number of items processed in the last hour' in the Admin studio showed the value was equal to the total number of items in the queue. This was traced to the an incorrect offset kept by the queue processor in the data table (Data-QueueProcessor-Run-Partition). Because the incoming messages from Kafka have a lower offset than the one kept by the queue processor, messages were treated as duplicates and not processed. This has been resolved by adding a partitions-validation mechanism on QP startup. To assist in proper handling, any messages identified as potentially already processed will be moved to the broken messages queue.

Declaratives disabled during startup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
Declaratives firing before the engine is fully up can lead to null pointer errors. In order to avoid this condition, declaratives will be disabled during startup so that unnecessary operations can be avoided and system can be started faster.

Improved timing for node tracing termination
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
The tracer stopped tracing after tracing a certain number of events. This was due to communication timing issues for tracer events from one node to another node in a multi-node cluster environment, caused by the Tracer Client using the pzMaxEvent property which limited the maximum number of events fetched at a time to 200. Any leftover Events should have been fetched in the next request, but when the consuming node's service ended after the 200 events, the system removed the service requester entry from the distributed Map and disabled remote node tracing as part of cleanup of the service execution. To resolve this, an update has been made so the node tracing will not be terminated until the service execution ends and there are no more events to process.

Class Loader cache values wrapped with WeakReference for improved cleanup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.2
Out Of Memory exceptions due to Metaspace were observed on Web tier instances running with a max Metaspace size of 2GB. Investigation showed that in PRClassLoaderDB, mLoaderCache values were wrapped with a SoftReference. To resolve this, the Class Loader cache values will be wrapped with a WeakReference, allowing the cache to free memory when it is no longer needed. JVM options has also been added to switch types of References being used if there is a preference.
