Druva Firewall Port and Connectivity Checks

Understand the issue

Druva Firewall Port and Connectivity Checks can involve product configuration, account permissions, network connectivity, or backup policy settings. The right procedure depends on whether you use Druva endpoint protection, inSync, Phoenix or a cloud workload offering. Start by identifying the exact product and whether the issue affects one endpoint, a backup policy, or an entire tenant. Avoid making changes to production retention or deleting a backup as a first troubleshooting step.

Step-by-step troubleshooting

Record the exact symptom, affected workload or endpoint, timestamp and error text.
Check agent or client status, assigned backup policy, last successful run and relevant logs.
Verify required connectivity, DNS, proxy settings, credentials and available resources without disabling security protections.
Use the official product documentation to compare versions and recommended remediation steps.
Run a safe backup or restore test, then escalate through the verified Druva support portal if unresolved.

What to check before escalating

Keep a record of the time of failure, affected workload, relevant policy name, client or agent version, and a sanitized copy of the error message. If the problem is intermittent, compare the most recent successful job with the failing run. For changes involving recovery or deletion, validate a known-good restore point first.

How to confirm the issue is resolved

Run a limited backup or recovery test within your organization’s approved change process. Check the job history and verify that the protected data is recoverable. A successful login or completed backup notification alone does not prove a restore will work.
