sabaresh:
Thanks it worked, but @Rahul Soni could you please explain what is wrong in my yaml file? I didnt do a kubectl apply command may be thats the issue?

Rahul Soni:
Its not wrong, but we need to use the command that is mention in the request field

cat server.csr | base64 | tr -d ‘\n’ at the command line and then paste it to yaml.
