Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All examples, file paths, and troubleshooting steps reference Windows-specific tools, directories (e.g., C:\Program Files), and processes. There is no mention of Linux-based SQL Server VMs, nor are there any Linux file paths, tools, or instructions. PowerShell is referenced as the automation method, and all extension and agent installation guidance is for Windows. This excludes users running SQL Server on Linux VMs in Azure, despite SQL Server's cross-platform support.
Recommendations:
- Add parallel instructions and examples for SQL Server on Linux VMs, including Linux file paths (e.g., /opt/azureworkloadbackup), service names, and extension installation steps.
- Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting steps, such as checking systemd services, Linux permissions, and log file locations.
- Include Bash/CLI examples alongside PowerShell for automation and scripting tasks.
- Reference both Windows and Linux VM guest agent installation guides.
- Clearly indicate which steps are Windows-specific and which are Linux-specific, or provide a table comparing the two.
- Mention any limitations or differences in Azure Backup support for SQL Server on Linux VMs, if applicable.
