Summary
The documentation for backing up file data with MABS demonstrates Windows bias. All instructions and terminology are tailored to Windows environments, referencing Windows-specific features (such as Data Deduplication, Volume Shadow Copy Service, and file/folder selection patterns). There are no examples, instructions, or clarifications for Linux systems, nor any mention of Linux-specific backup considerations or tools. The documentation assumes the use of Windows consoles and features, and does not address cross-platform scenarios.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions and examples for backing up Linux machines with MABS, including agent installation and supported file systems.
- Clarify which features (e.g., deduplication, VSS, EUR) are Windows-only and provide Linux alternatives or note limitations.
- Include Linux-specific terminology and workflows, such as typical Linux directory structures, permissions, and recovery patterns.
- Mention any differences in backup and recovery procedures for Linux clients, and provide troubleshooting steps for common Linux issues.
- Ensure parity in documentation by presenting Linux and Windows steps side-by-side where applicable.
