Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows environments. All troubleshooting steps, examples, and tool references are specific to Windows (e.g., MMC console, Internet Explorer, Task Scheduler, Registry Editor, vssadmin, PowerShell). There are no Linux equivalents or mentions, and the MARS agent is treated as a Windows-only solution. Linux users or those seeking cross-platform guidance will find no relevant instructions or parity.
Recommendations
- Clearly state at the beginning whether the MARS agent is Windows-only, and if so, direct Linux users to the appropriate Azure Backup solutions for Linux.
- If Linux support is available or planned, provide equivalent troubleshooting steps, examples, and tool references for Linux environments (e.g., using systemctl, journalctl, Linux file paths, and relevant package managers).
- Where PowerShell or Windows-specific tools are referenced, add corresponding Linux shell commands or procedures if applicable.
- Avoid assuming the use of Internet Explorer or Windows GUI tools; provide browser-agnostic and CLI-based alternatives.
- Add a section or links for Linux backup agent troubleshooting, or clarify that Linux users should use a different agent (such as Azure VM backup or Azure Backup for Linux).
