Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, specifically referencing the MARS agent, which is only available for Windows. All examples, screenshots, and instructions are for Windows tools (MARS console, Windows Server, DPM/MABS, Windows file paths, and Windows UI patterns). There are no Linux equivalents mentioned, nor any cross-platform guidance. Antivirus configuration, backup management, and recovery instructions are all Windows-centric, with no mention of Linux support or alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state in the introduction that the MARS agent is only supported on Windows, and provide links to Linux backup solutions (such as Azure Backup for Linux or Azure VM Backup).
  • Add a comparison table or section outlining backup options for Linux systems and how they differ from MARS agent usage.
  • Where possible, provide parity examples for Linux (e.g., using Azure CLI, shell scripts, or Linux-based backup agents) or direct users to relevant documentation.
  • Clarify in each section that instructions are Windows-specific, and suggest alternatives for Linux users.
  • Include guidance on monitoring, reporting, and antivirus configuration for Linux environments if supported by other Azure backup solutions.
