Summary
The documentation exhibits significant Windows bias. All VM creation and disk attachment instructions reference Windows VMs and Windows-specific Azure portal guides. The installation steps assume a Windows Server OS, with no mention of Linux alternatives. Powershell is used for configuration checks, and disk formatting is described in terms of Windows filesystems (ReFS). There are no Linux-specific examples, instructions, or parity in tooling or deployment patterns.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions for deploying Azure Backup Server on supported Linux distributions, if possible, or clarify Windows-only support.
  • Provide Linux VM creation and disk attachment examples alongside Windows instructions.
  • Offer equivalent Linux command-line examples (e.g., Bash, CLI) for configuration and setup steps, not just Powershell.
  • Discuss Linux filesystem support and formatting options, and clarify ReFS/NTFS limitations for Linux users.
  • Explicitly state OS support matrix early in the documentation, and provide guidance for Linux users if Azure Backup Server is Windows-only.
