New Features
New 'Self referencing' parameter in the Onboarding Mapping Details screen
The Setup tab of the Onboarding Mappings Details Screen has been enhanced with a newly introduced parameter, 'Self referencing', enabling users to perform data onboarding (moving / copying) within the same object. When this checkbox is selected, the source and target objects are set to be the same. These Mapper Configuration setup entities are executed under specific conditions where the target data is located on the same node instance as the source data. Use cases for this functionality include scenarios such as migrating own data to an industry standard format or upgrading from one version of an industry standard (e.g., version X) to the next (e.g., version X+1). For more information on this, refer to the Configuring Mapper Configuration Setup Entity topic in the Data Onboarding documentation here.
Further, to distinguish the Self-referencing Mapper Configuration setup entity from the others, the Stacked Mapper action button has been updated to include an additional tab called 'Self-Referencing', as shown below. For more information on this, refer to the Executing Mapper Configuration Setup Entity topic in the Data Onboarding documentation here
PDX Channel Configurator UI extension
A new optional parameter called Minimum Pixels (Longest Side) has been added within the Supplier Data Definition tab of the PDX Onboarding Channel Configurator. The purpose of this parameter is to provide users with the ability to define the smallest number of pixels allowed for an asset's longest side.
LFSC Announcement
Customer Action Required for Harmful Lock-free Schema Change (LFSC) Bug
The LFSC (Lock Free Scheme Change) feature replaced SUM (Single Update Mode) when Stibo Systems introduced Cassandra as a database. Cassandra database does not have a concept of locks like Oracle does.
After a recent unplanned outage / restart, we uncovered a bug in the Lock-free Schema Change (LFSC) feature. If an LFSC process was running at the time of the outage, and if the system was brought back online without the bugfix (outlined below), there was risk of data corruption.
To prevent the loss of data, users should apply the hotfix outlined below to their systems. It is applicable to the last maintenance patch version of each baseline version. For example, 11.1 systems should be on 11.1-MP4 to apply the hotfix. Those customers installing the newly released 11.2 (2023.2) do not need this hotfix since the fix is included in the baseline code.
to:hotfix/621/issue-621425-HOTFIX-6544.spr
Because you may not know what database your system is using, this hotfix is safe for Cassandra systems and non-Cassandra systems. For SaaS systems, the hotfix will be applied by Stibo Systems when it is time to do any additional hotfixing, upgrading, and restarts. Open an issue (i.e., ticket) in the Stibo Systems Service Portal if you would like to have this hotfix applied immediately. If you do not proactively open a new issue in the next few days, we will begin to reach out to each Stibo Systems SaaS customer individually (through a ticket) to schedule.
For all customers: we stand ready to move forward with updating your systems or helping you update your systems with the fix.
Additionally, we recommend the following:
-
Do not engage the LFSC feature on your systems until step 2 (below) is accomplished. (i.e., do not attempt any of the actions that would have engaged a SUM process in Oracle).
-
Update your systems to the latest maintenance patch for your STEP baseline version. Apply the hotfix. Your non-production systems (QA, DEV, and pre-prod) should also be hotfixed.
For more information about LFSC, refer to the Lock-free Schema Change documentation. Contact Stibo Systems Support with any questions.
PDX Announcement
STEP to PDX Integration
The new integration approach to integrating STEP and PDX moves the responsibility of converting multi-context STEPXML to PDX-native JSON from the STEP application to the PDX application. This change has been done to improve the overall throughput of product records transferred from STEP to PDX.
Currently, when the PDX component is added to STEP versions 10.1 – 11.2 (2023.2), the old JSON outbound integration is used. However, the new STEPXML outbound integration also works with these STEP versions. Starting with the STEP 2023.3 release in September 2023, ONLY the new STEPXML outbound integration will be supported, and the old JSON outbound integration will no longer be available.
Users of PDX, regardless of their STEP version, will be required to set up the new STEPXML outbound integration and disable the old JSON outbound integration by the time 2023.3 is released. Existing customers on the JSON outbound integration must contact their Stibo Systems account manager or partner manager to discuss migration to the STEPXML outbound integration approach.
The documentation has been updated to reflect the upcoming changes. For more information, refer to the Product Data Exchange section of the Data Integration documentation here.
New PDX Syndication customers should only use the STEPXML outbound integration.
Kafka Topic Offset Announcement
Kafka Receiver IIEPs require a hotfix to avoid losing messages
In release 11.2 (2023.2), the option to have Kafka manage the topic offset for Kafka Receiver IIEPs was introduced, making Kafka aware of which messages have been consumed. However, depending on the number of messages received and the number of waiting background processes in the IIEP, messages could be lost. A hotfix has been created to resolve this problem. All 11.2 (2023.2) systems using a Kafka Receiver IIEP where Kafka manages the offset, must apply the recipe to:hotfix/623/issue-623905-HOTFIX-6566.spr (or have it applied) to ensure all messages are processed.
Documentation Updates
Documentation clarification around Lionbridge V2 translations
Information regarding a new 'Quarantine' State for Lionbridge V2 translations was added to 11.2 (2023.2)-MP1 online help, however, the functionality is not yet available. Topics impacted are the 11.2 (2023.2)-MP1 Maintenance Patch Notes and Configuring an Asynchronous Translation Service. This functionality will be available in a later maintenance patch and/or feature release.
Bugfixes

ISSUE-622160 - Fix for exports stalling on PROD and TEST and causing massive delays in delivery
Exports on Oracle out-memory systems were unnecessary slow, investigating an excessive amount of data during export of suppressed cross-references. This has been remedied. Patching will require one index to be rebuilt. The index is believed to be empty for most customers, and very small for the rest; as such little writing and sorting will take place, but we have no estimate for the patching time, as it is data- and hardware- dependent. There is also a hotfix available for this solution that is applicable to step-10.1-mp4, mp5, mp6, mp7, 10.2-mp3 and mp4, 10.3-mp4 and mp5, and 11.0-mp4 and mp5, 11.1-mp4 and mp5, and 11.2.
