Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All instructions, examples, and prerequisites are specific to Windows Server (2016/2019), DPM, and MABS, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. The use of Windows-specific tools (PSExec, Windows Registry, Windows certificate manager), PowerShell modules, and Windows paths further reinforces this bias. No Linux equivalents or guidance are provided, and the workflow assumes a Windows-only context throughout.
Recommendations
- Add explicit statements about Linux support or lack thereof for DPM/MABS and Azure Data Box workflows.
- If Linux support is possible, provide equivalent instructions for Linux environments, including mounting Data Box via NFS, certificate management, and Azure CLI/PowerShell alternatives.
- Include examples using Linux tools (e.g., mount, openssl, Azure CLI) where applicable.
- Clarify platform limitations early in the documentation and link to Linux-specific backup solutions if DPM/MABS is Windows-only.
- Consider restructuring sections to mention cross-platform options or alternatives before diving into Windows-specific steps.
