Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows-specific components (such as the AzureBackupWindowsWorkload extension and NT Service accounts), and does not mention or provide guidance for SQL Server running on Linux VMs. All examples, instructions, and screenshots assume a Windows environment, with no parity for Linux-based SQL Server deployments.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state whether the tutorial applies only to Windows-based SQL Server VMs, or provide equivalent instructions for SQL Server on Linux VMs.
  • Add sections or notes describing how to back up SQL Server databases on Linux VMs, including any differences in required extensions, permissions, or agent installation.
  • Include Linux-specific examples, commands, and screenshots where applicable (e.g., using bash, systemd service accounts, or Linux file paths).
  • Clarify any limitations or unsupported scenarios for Linux-based SQL Server in Azure Backup, and link to relevant documentation if available.
  • Ensure that prerequisites and troubleshooting steps cover both Windows and Linux environments.
