Summary:
The documentation is exclusively focused on Windows Server, with all instructions, screenshots, and tools (such as the MARS agent) tailored for Windows environments. There are no references to Linux systems, Linux backup tools, or cross-platform parity. The workflow, agent downloads, and backup/restore steps are all Windows-specific, and Linux is not mentioned as a supported scenario or given any equivalent guidance.
Recommendations:
- If Azure Backup supports Linux system state or similar backups, add a parallel section or separate article for Linux, including equivalent steps, tools, and screenshots.
- Explicitly state in the introduction and prerequisites that the guide is Windows-only, and provide a link to Linux backup documentation if available.
- Where possible, mention cross-platform alternatives or clarify the scope (e.g., 'This guide is for Windows Server. For Linux, see...').
- If Linux is not supported for system state backup with Azure Backup, clearly state this limitation to avoid confusion.
- Ensure future documentation on backup covers both Windows and Linux scenarios, or provides clear parity in examples and tooling.
