Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows-specific tools and clustering frameworks (e.g., Windows Failover Cluster, Scale-Out File Services, SIOS Datakeeper) are frequently mentioned first and in greater detail than their Linux equivalents. Many examples and recommendations (especially for SQL Server and SAP Central Services) are Windows-centric, with Linux alternatives often presented later or with less detail. Some high availability and multi-SID clustering scenarios are described as fully supported only on Windows, with Linux support more limited or requiring third-party solutions. There are also cases where Linux examples or guidance are missing or less comprehensive, particularly for Oracle Linux and Pacemaker configurations.
Recommendations
- Ensure that Linux-based examples (e.g., Pacemaker, NFS, DRBD, GlusterFS) are presented with equal prominence and detail as Windows examples.
- Where Windows tools or frameworks are mentioned, immediately provide the Linux equivalent (e.g., Pacemaker, Corosync) and link to relevant documentation.
- Expand documentation for Linux high availability and multi-SID clustering scenarios, including Oracle Linux, and clarify support boundaries and third-party options.
- Avoid presenting Windows solutions first by alternating or grouping by OS, or by providing parallel sections for Windows and Linux.
- Include more Linux-specific configuration and troubleshooting examples, especially for SAP Central Services and DBMS high availability.
- Clarify any limitations or gaps in Linux support and provide guidance or links to community or vendor resources for unsupported scenarios.
