Required Oracle optimization parameter
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.3
To optimize performance, set the Oracle parameter optimizer_index_cost_adj to a value between 20 and 25. If this value is not set, the system can run exceedingly slowly, potentially blocking users from login.
Synchronized database and application server settings
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.3
Configure your database and application server to use the same time zone and character encoding to avoid conflicts.
PRServlet not required in PRPC URLs
Valid from Pega Version 7.1.6
PRServlet is no longer required in a URL when accessing PRPC. A URL typically written like this:
http://example.com/prweb/PRServlet?[QueryString]
Can instead be written like this:
http://example.com/prweb/?[QueryString]
This change is effective only for PRPC 7.1.6 and newer versions. Older versions of PRPC still require using PRServlet in a URL.
