Problem description

Changes made to VMs on the vCenter side are not reflected in the Druva Console.

Cause

The refresh job for VMs has not run yet. By default, it runs every 24 hours, which may delay the discovery of new changes.

Resolution

A manual refresh needs to be triggered in the console to initiate the discovery job for VMs. This will ensure that new changes are updated in the Druva Console.

Follow the steps below to manually trigger a refresh:

  • Log in to the Management Console.

  • Select your organization from the top menu bar (if organizations are enabled). If not, proceed to the next step.

  • Navigate to Protect > VMware in the menu.

  • Click on the specific vCenter/ESXi Host where the VMs are configured.

  • Click on the Refresh icon (recycle symbol) next to the VM's name to trigger the refresh.

  • After the refresh is complete, the new changes will be reflected in the console.
