Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows Server and Microsoft SQL Server on Windows, with no mention of Linux-based SQL Server deployments or migration scenarios. All examples, prerequisites, and tested configurations are Windows-centric, and only Windows tools (e.g., SQL Server Management Studio) are referenced for verification. There is no guidance for users running SQL Server on Linux or using Linux-based management tools.
Recommendations
  • Include tested configurations and migration steps for SQL Server running on Linux (e.g., Ubuntu, Red Hat) as source VMs.
  • Provide Linux-specific prerequisites, such as backup and verification commands using native Linux tools (e.g., systemctl, sqlcmd).
  • Add examples of accessing and verifying the migrated SQL Server instance using Linux-based tools (e.g., sqlcmd, Azure Data Studio on Linux).
  • Reference documentation for SQL Server on Linux and Linux VM migration best practices.
  • Clarify whether the migration steps are applicable to Linux-based SQL Server deployments and highlight any differences or additional considerations.
