Summary

The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through its focus on Azure Virtual Machines (which are often Windows-based), and by listing PowerShell as a supported client before CLI. There are no explicit Linux-specific examples, nor is there mention of Linux tools or workflows. The examples and screenshots are centered on Azure VM backup, with no reference to Linux VM backup scenarios or Linux-specific recovery workflows.

Recommendations

Add explicit examples and guidance for Linux VM backup and recovery, including any differences in archive tier support.
Ensure CLI examples (az CLI) are provided and prioritized equally or before PowerShell, as CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux.
Include screenshots or walkthroughs for Linux VM scenarios, not just Azure VM (Windows) backup.
Mention any Linux-specific considerations, such as file system support, agent requirements, or restore limitations.
Where possible, clarify that the guidance applies to both Windows and Linux VMs, or note any differences.
