Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All instructions, prerequisites, and examples are tailored exclusively for Windows environments. The installation steps, VM recommendations, and tooling (e.g., PowerShell cmdlets, Windows Server images, Windows Update, domain joining) are Windows-specific. There are no references to Linux-based deployment, Linux VM images, or cross-platform alternatives. The use of Windows-centric terminology and tools (e.g., C:\, D:\, domain join, PowerShell, Windows Update) further reinforces this bias.
Recommendations
  • Add guidance for deploying Azure Backup Server on Linux-based VMs if supported, or clarify Windows-only support explicitly.
  • Provide parity by including Linux equivalents for prerequisites, such as .NET installation steps, disk mounting, and storage configuration.
  • If PowerShell is required, mention cross-platform alternatives (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash scripts) or note PowerShell Core compatibility on Linux.
  • Reference Linux VM images in Azure Stack Hub where applicable, and provide instructions for their setup.
  • Clarify any limitations or lack of support for Linux, so administrators can make informed decisions.
  • Include troubleshooting steps and network configuration examples for Linux environments.
