Updated visibility condition expression handling for decimal values
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After upgrade, any visibility condition expression failed to evaluate decimal values that used precision. When 0 (zero) was entered as a value in the input field, a button that was configured to show was visible as expected. When the value was entered as 0.0, the input failed and the button did not show. The problem did not happen "Run visibility condition on client" was enabled. Investigation showed this was an issue with how the When expression was evaluated and calculated within JspWhenEvaluate, and has been resolved.

Timeout for node to join cluster increased and made configurable
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
Hazelcast timeouts were causing application restart failures. This was traced to a rare case scenario of heavy processing on the primary node causing the new node to not be able to join the cluster within the designated 5 minute threshold. To compensate for this, the default time to join has been increased to 9 minutes and a prconfig setting has been added to configure the time setting.

Modified thread data page cleanup
Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.1
Some cases were becoming stuck at a particular stage and not proceeding further even though the task in the backend was complete. Investigation traced this to work done that removed declarative pages at the thread level to optimize performance while other clipboard pages were retained, and the issue has been resolved by deleting all thread data pages after every item processed by the agent.
