Usage steps

Identify the target cluster with applications to be renamed.
Run the script with the -test option to identify the applications that will be renamed.
```
-renameForCluster cluster1 2 -test
```
Ensure that only expected applications are renamed.
If applications need to be excluded, then use the -excludedApps option to prevent the applications from being renamed.
```
-renameForCluster cluster1 2 -test -excludedApps=AppB,AppC,AppD-edition2
```

Run the script without the -test option to rename the applications.

-renameForCluster cluster1 2 -excludedApps=AppB,AppC,AppD-edition2
