Bias Analysis

missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation shows subtle Windows bias by mentioning Windows-specific tools (Volume Shadow Copy Service - VSS) before their Linux equivalents (fsfreeze), and by linking only to Windows VM Agent and snapshot extension documentation. There are no Linux-specific example links or detailed references, and Linux is only mentioned in passing (e.g., 'pre/post scripts for Linux VM backups') without further guidance or parity in documentation links.
Recommendations:
- When referencing tools for backup consistency, mention Linux (fsfreeze) before or alongside Windows (VSS), not after.
- Provide equivalent documentation links for Linux VM Agent and snapshot extension, not just Windows.
- Include Linux-specific examples or scenarios, such as how crash-consistent backups interact with common Linux workloads or filesystems.
- Clarify or expand on the use of pre/post scripts for Linux, possibly linking to relevant Linux backup documentation.
- Ensure that all instructions, notes, and references are balanced between Windows and Linux environments to improve parity.
