Root cause: The last block of the updated Hallengren SQLServerMaintenance.sql script (lines 9487–9514) runs unconditionally — it is not guarded by the @CreateJobs = 'N' check. This block cursors through msdb.dbo.sysjobsteps looking for existing job steps that use the old @Checksum casing, and calls sp_update_jobstep to fix them to @Checksum.
When sp_update_jobstep is called, SQL Server Agent internally calls sp_verify_jobstep, which re-validates the database_name field of the existing job step. Orphaned SQL Agent job steps from a previous deployment test still reference
