INC-143121 · Issue 610732

Timeout for loading predictors made configurable

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6

When using an extremely large number of predictors, the Report definition pzADMPredictorsFilter was suffering timeouts due to the time for loading predictors from the database exceeding the time threshold allowed. This has been resolved by marking the rule as editable to allow custom setting of the threshold according to need.

Adaptive models update correctly

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6

Some models had the recorded responses column updated, but the models (number of Positive, Negative and Processed Responses) were not updated. Investigation showed that deleting the modelRuleConfiguration through the stateManager/client did not delete modelFactories related to the configuration. If a new configuration came in with a different algorithm, the update issue occurred. This has been resolved by reseting the configuration according to its factory in that specific case.

Locking added to avoid null pointer error for auto-populate property

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6

After configuring the auto populate property "OrgProduct" which referred to a data page, the system experiencing heavy load led to the property not getting properly initialized. This resulted in a WrongModeException and NullPointerException. To resolve this, the system has been updated to lock the requestor when Queue Processors execute their activity. This will prevent race conditions and concurrent modifications if other threads are accessing the same requestor.

Duplicate key exception resolved for adaptive model

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6

During the model snapshot update, a DuplicateKeyException was generated while trying to insert a record in to the predictor table. This did not affect the model's learning, but did appear ion the model monitoring report. This was traced to a local scenario of having the same outcome values defined on the model with different cases (Accept and accept). All predictors used in an Adaptive model are inserted into the model monitoring tables as a part of the monitoring job: because the monitoring tables are not case sensitive, this lead to a unique constraint exception since there were multiple IH predictors with the same name. To resolve this, validation has been added which will skip adding duplicates from new responses.

ML model continue tag error changed to debug logging

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6

Log entries were seen indicating "The continue tag is found without a start tag for window Line1 1234567890 in text". This appeared to be coming from the MLCommand java class. Investigation showed this occurred when the ML model believed a portion of the text (token) was a continuation of the entity because it has not found the starting part of the entity. This situation is not currently treated as a valid output, so an update has been made to change the logging level from error to debug for this case.

Unescaping characters implemented for expressions

Resolved in Pega Version 8.3.6, Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4, Resolved in Pega Version 8.5.3, Resolved in Pega Version 8.6

An issue where expression builder statements were evaluated differently at runtime than at testing has been resolved. Pega Platform expressions with String literals(that is, sequences of characters enclosed in quotation marks) now unescape characters in strategy shapes such as Set Property or Filter.

Update Handler will not run during migration

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

Rolling restart of DataFlow, ADM ,VBD, and Util Tiers failed with a PENDING_JOINING error after an in-place upgrade. This was traced to the logic for the update timing: when nodes start after an upgrade from 7.x to 8.x they will migrate data flow runs. Migration happens on only one node, and while it's in progress the other nodes will wait until migration finishes before they come up. At this point the state of the data flow services will be 'PENDING JOINING'. The issue is that while migrating runs, the Data Flow Update Handler was triggered to validate whether there were nodes available on the service the run belongs to. This call can cause the corresponding data flow service to be initialized, but the call will be blocked since all services wait for the migration to end. This resulted in a deadlock which prevented all nodes from coming up successfully. To resolve this, the process has been updated to skip the update handler during migration to avoid triggering the initialization of client services that are waiting on the migration lock.

SR-D74117 · Issue 539463

DDS service will not run Hazelcast check if external Cassandra is configured

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

Services were not responding, and thread dumps seen in the logs indicated that a large number of threads were waiting for one to come back from getting the cluster state for a DSM process. Investigation showed that the threads were waiting for a Hazelcast response about the cluster state. However, since a Hazelcast call is not needed when Pega is configured with external Cassandra, the DDS Service code has been changed to not to check for candidate nodes if configured with external Cassandra cluster.

SR-D75519 · Issue 536719

Corrected calculating propensities

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

Several PMML models designed to compare the outcomes to a control dataset experienced an issue where the probability scores in Pega did not match the original control dataset. The PMML model was also tested using KNIME; those results matched Pega but not the original control dataset. Investigation showed that the JPMML evaluator contained outdated code, and the incorrect calculations have been resolved.

SR-D77157 · Issue 544473

DataSet preview will use date instead of datetime

Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.1

While using a DataSet preview functionality, the date appeared as reduced by one day. This has been resolved by parsing date as 'date' instead of 'datetime' to avoid issues with timezone interactions.
