Summary
The documentation page exhibits several signs of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as RoboCopy and PowerShell) are mentioned exclusively or before Linux equivalents (e.g., rsync). The only explicit command-line example for configuring disaster recovery for VMs in scale sets is PowerShell, with no mention of CLI or Linux-native alternatives. Storage replication recommendations for SMB shares reference RoboCopy (a Windows tool) without offering Linux alternatives. There is also a lack of explicit Linux-focused examples or guidance, despite the service list including 'virtual-machines-linux'.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux-native examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, such as using Azure CLI or Bash scripts for DR configuration.
  • Mention and document Linux tools (e.g., rsync, scp) for file replication wherever RoboCopy is referenced.
  • Clarify whether Azure Site Recovery setup for scale sets can be performed using Azure CLI or REST API, and provide Linux-friendly instructions if possible.
  • Include explicit examples and guidance for SAP workloads running on Linux, especially in sections discussing VM and storage replication.
  • Ensure that references to command-line tools and scripts are platform-neutral or offer both Windows and Linux options.
