Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. It exclusively describes migration to Windows Server, uses Windows-specific tools (Robocopy, Event Viewer), and does not provide any Linux or cross-platform alternatives or examples. All instructions, troubleshooting, and recommendations are tailored for Windows Server, with no mention of Linux-based servers, tools, or migration patterns.
Recommendations
  • Add guidance for migrating NAS data directly to Azure Files from Linux servers, including supported tools such as rsync, cp, or azcopy.
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and commands for copying data to Data Box SMB shares and Azure File Shares.
  • Include troubleshooting steps and monitoring instructions for Linux environments, such as using syslog, journalctl, or other Linux-native tools.
  • Clarify whether Azure File Sync or similar hybrid solutions are available for Linux, and if not, suggest alternative architectures for Linux-based on-premises systems.
  • Ensure parity in documentation structure by presenting Linux options and examples alongside Windows instructions, not only as afterthoughts.
