Invalid text entry in Date control field now returns current timestamp
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
Inconsistent behavior was seen between entering an invalid date in numeric vs text format. Entering an invalid date in number format resulted in the system replacing the entered value with the text “Invalid date”. Entering an invalid date in text format caused the system to retain the value and not show a validation error. This has been corrected by modifying the date/time formatting for both text and numerical input to return the timestamp in case the entered value is incorrect.

Added check before deleting pxObjClass to avoid agent runtime exceptions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
When the rule was not assembled, agents were failing with exceptions. During label control assembly execution, standard attributes for label assembly including pxObjClass are removed from the cell page. There is a catch for the exception during cell trimming for browser requests, but the customer agent was failing because UnmodifiablePropertyException is a runtime exception that sets the step status to fail. This has been fixed by adding a check when attempting to delete a property from Clipboard page: if the property is pxObjClass, it will not be deleted.

Added check for appname to avoid HarnessFail execution error on Mashup reload
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
A HarnessFail execution error was occurring on Mashup reload. This was caused by the appname being appended twice during the reload, and has been resolved by adding a check to the _finalizeNavURL method in the PegaCompositeGadgetMgr.js file to remove appName if it is present in the URL to prevent duplication.

DSS added to handle Amazon S3 socket timeout exception
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
In Amazon S3, a timeout exception occurs when the socket is idle more than the default timeout value (50 seconds). In order to compensate for this, an enhancement has been added which provides a DSS “repository/s3sockettimeout” where the s3 socket timeout can be specified in milliseconds. When a value is provided to this DSS, it will override the default value of 50 seconds.

Performance improvements made on bulk actions
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
Latency was observed when performing transfer Bulk Action on cases. Investigation showed that the "Select Action" button in pzBulkProcessingActionSection contained a refresh other section action for the pzBulkProcessingCheckbox section that executed on each row of the grid rendered. This refresh is not needed as the "Post value" action will take care of posting the selected checkbox data to clipboard, so it has been removed to resolve the performance issue.

CPU time will be fetched from MBeanServer instead of the JRE application to provide consistency
Resolved in Pega Version 8.3
The value of CPU time in the Enterprise health metrics was being given in nanoseconds instead of seconds after the IBM JRE version was upgraded by applying Websphere Application Server patches. The CPUTimer is a platform class which has logic specific to different JRE vendors; in order to provide consistent results regardless of which JRE is used, the system has been updated to always fetch the values from the MBeanServer.
