Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All examples, tools, and workflows focus exclusively on Microsoft-centric backup solutions (MABS, DPM, MARS), which are only available for Windows environments. There are no references to Linux backup agents, Linux-based workloads, or cross-platform scenarios. Command-line examples and troubleshooting steps reference only Windows tools (e.g., PowerShell cmdlets like Remove-DPMChildDatasource, Remove-OBPolicy). The documentation does not mention or provide parity for Linux backup scenarios, nor does it clarify the lack of support for non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state the Windows-only scope of the documented features and tools at the beginning of the article.
- Add a section or note addressing the current limitations for Linux and non-Windows workloads, including any roadmap or alternatives for Linux backup security features.
- If Azure Backup supports Linux workloads in any capacity, provide equivalent examples, workflows, and troubleshooting steps for Linux environments (e.g., using Azure CLI, shell scripts, or Linux-native agents).
- Avoid referencing only Windows tools and PowerShell cmdlets; where possible, include cross-platform command-line examples (e.g., Azure CLI) or clarify when a feature is Windows-specific.
- Ensure that future documentation updates track and highlight feature parity (or gaps) between Windows and Linux backup solutions.
