Auto-deployment of the Kubernetes workload fails during backupservercert creation

Auto-deployment of the Kubernetes workload fails during backupservercert creation because the primary server name contains uppercase characters in values.yaml file.

During the backupservercert creation process, NetBackup deployment attempts to create a Kubernetes Secret (secret-PRIMARY). Kubernetes enforces the RFC 1123 subdomain format rule for resource names.

Since secret-PRIMARY contains uppercase letters (PRIMARY), it violates this rule and is rejected.

When deploying NetBackup for Kubernetes, ensure that the Primary Server name in values.yaml file is written entirely in lowercase.
