Uppercase not allowed in metadata.names

ganeshahv

Hi, I hit the following error everytime a resource has Uppercase in its name.
I understand it is meaningful.
Is this specific to a kubectl version?

If not, can we change the ones in the examples to conform to the requirement.

ubuntu@ip-172-31-32-211:~$ kubectl apply -f secret.yaml
The Secret "LF-secret" is invalid: metadata.name: Invalid value: "LF-secret": a DNS-1123 subdomain must consist of lower case alphanumeric characters, '-' or '.', and must start and end with an alphanumeric character (e.g. 'example.com', regex used for validation is '[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?(\.[a-z0-9]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])?)*')

Hi @ganeshahv,

You can always modify the examples to fit the ever-changing requirements of Kubernetes.
The regex validation rule specifies that the value should start with a lower case, so you could use lf-secret instead.
