Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server and Microsoft SQL Server Always On Availability Groups, with all examples, configuration steps, and references centered around Windows-based tools and patterns (e.g., Windows Server Failover Cluster, SQL Server Management Studio). There are no Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives mentioned, and all guidance assumes a Windows environment for both the database and clustering technologies.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state that the guidance applies only to Windows-based SQL Server deployments, or clarify platform limitations.
- If Linux-based SQL Server Always On Availability Groups are supported in Azure VMware Solution, add equivalent migration steps, prerequisites, and tooling for Linux environments (e.g., Pacemaker clusters, Linux SQL Server tools).
- Include references to Linux documentation and best practices for SQL Server clustering and migration.
- Provide a comparison table or section outlining differences and considerations for Windows vs. Linux SQL Server deployments in Azure VMware Solution.
- Mention alternative management tools (e.g., Azure Data Studio, sqlcmd) that are cross-platform, in addition to SSMS.
