Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on troubleshooting System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM), a Microsoft product that is only available for Windows. All examples, commands, and troubleshooting steps reference Windows-specific tools (e.g., 'net stop dpmra'), Windows services, and concepts (e.g., NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM, MARS agent, USN journal). There are no Linux equivalents, examples, or mentions of cross-platform scenarios. The documentation assumes the reader is using Windows and does not address Linux environments.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state that DPM is a Windows-only product at the beginning of the documentation to clarify platform scope.
- If any components (such as Azure Backup agent) support Linux, provide troubleshooting steps and examples for Linux environments.
- Where possible, mention alternatives for Linux backup and recovery (e.g., Azure Backup for Linux VMs) and link to relevant documentation.
- Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (e.g., NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM, USN journal) without clarifying platform applicability.
- Consider adding a section that discusses cross-platform backup strategies and how DPM fits into a heterogeneous environment.
