I have one namespace 'eshop-bg-poc' into kubernetes cluster and I have enabled istio automatic injection also into namespace. I have one nginx under service name 'eshop-bgpoc-nginx' running with minimum replicas 3 and maximum replicas 5 . but if i redeployed nginx than for few seconds i received 502 badgateway request on nginx .
I tested same scenario by disable istio automatic injection into same namespace . It worked fine for redeployment nginx not able to see 502 bad gateway request.
Note : I haven't applied any virtual services and destination rule for nginx
