Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server Failover Cluster and SQL Server, with all examples and procedures referencing Windows Server, Windows tools (Failover Cluster Manager, SQL Server Management Studio), and Windows-specific clustering concepts. There are no examples or mentions of Linux-based SQL Server deployments, Linux clustering solutions (such as Pacemaker or Corosync), or cross-platform migration considerations. The prerequisites, migration steps, and troubleshooting are all described exclusively for Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Add guidance and examples for migrating Linux-based SQL Server deployments (supported since SQL Server 2017) to Azure VMware Solution.
- Include references to Linux clustering solutions (e.g., Pacemaker) and how to handle their migration.
- Provide parity in tooling instructions, such as using Linux command-line tools (e.g., systemctl, pcs) for cluster management and verification.
- Mention differences in storage and network configuration for Linux VMs and how to record and restore these settings.
- Reference official documentation for SQL Server on Linux and Linux clustering in the 'More information' section.
- Clarify in the introduction that the procedure is specific to Windows Server, and provide links or sections for Linux scenarios if applicable.
