Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All examples use Windows-specific tools (Robocopy), and instructions reference Windows-only services (Storage Sync Agent Service) and concepts (drive letters, SMB access via Windows). There are no Linux equivalents or examples, and the workflow assumes a Windows Server context throughout.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions for Linux servers, including supported Azure File Sync scenarios for Linux (if available).
  • Provide Linux-based file copy commands (such as rsync or cp) alongside Robocopy examples.
  • Clarify whether Azure File Sync is supported on Linux, and if not, explicitly state this limitation.
  • If SMB access is relevant for Linux, include steps for managing SMB shares on Linux (e.g., using Samba).
  • Avoid assuming drive letters; use mount points or device paths in examples where appropriate for Linux.
  • Present instructions for both platforms in parallel, or clearly indicate platform-specific steps.
