Current Behavior

When using a requestRedirect filter, the following info is logged every 3 seconds. It makes log review and debugging difficult.

2024-09-30T11:02:38Z info No targets found to create upstream {"v": 0, "service_name": "httproute.website.website-redirect.0"}

HTTPRoute:

  rules:
    - filters:
        - requestRedirect:
            hostname: <alternative host>
            port: 443
            scheme: https
            statusCode: 301
          type: RequestRedirect
      matches:
        - path:
            type: PathPrefix
            value: /

Expected Behavior

Our log retention costs go down by not logging this error. There's no backend configured for this redirect rule.
