Summary
The documentation page exclusively describes file migration using Robocopy, a Windows-only tool, and instructs users to deploy a Windows VM for the process. No Linux tools or examples (such as rsync, cifs-utils, or smbclient) are mentioned, nor is there guidance for performing similar migrations from Linux environments. The instructions and examples are Windows-centric, indicating a clear Windows bias.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent migration instructions for Linux environments, using tools such as rsync, smbclient, or mount.cifs.
- Provide Linux command-line examples for mounting SMB Azure file shares and copying data.
- Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., AzCopy, which is referenced in 'See also') earlier in the page and clarify their applicability.
- Include a section comparing Windows and Linux approaches, highlighting pros and cons for each.
- Avoid assuming the user will deploy a Windows VM; suggest Linux VM options where appropriate.
