Summary
The documentation consistently uses Windows-centric resource names (e.g., SQLServer2012, MSSQLSERVER), VM names, and examples that imply SQL Server on Windows. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based SQL Server VMs, nor any mention of Linux-specific considerations, tools, or patterns. The documentation does not clarify whether the REST API process applies equally to SQL Server on Linux VMs, nor does it provide Linux-oriented sample resource names or scenarios.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state whether the documented REST API process supports SQL Server running on Linux VMs in Azure.
- Add Linux-based example resource names (e.g., SQLServerLinux, MSSQLSERVER on Linux) and VM names to demonstrate parity.
- Include a note or section describing any differences, prerequisites, or limitations when backing up SQL Server databases on Linux VMs.
- Provide sample REST API calls and responses for Linux-based SQL Server VMs, if applicable.
- Reference Linux tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash scripts) for automation alongside any Windows/PowerShell references.
- Ensure terminology and instructions are OS-neutral where possible, or clearly call out OS-specific steps.
