Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways. Windows-centric tools and patterns (such as PowerShell and Azure Backup Agent) are mentioned explicitly and often listed before cross-platform or Linux alternatives. Examples and references to PowerShell are given, but there are no explicit Linux shell (bash) or Linux-specific usage examples. Windows workloads (Azure Backup Agent, DPM, Azure Backup Server) are referenced, while Linux equivalents (such as Linux VM backup scenarios or Linux CLI usage) are not highlighted or exemplified. The documentation does not provide parity in examples or guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit Linux CLI (bash) examples alongside PowerShell, especially for common monitoring and reporting tasks.
  • Mention Linux VM backup scenarios and provide guidance or references for monitoring and reporting in Linux environments.
  • Ensure that Azure CLI usage is demonstrated with Linux shell syntax, not just referenced generically.
  • Add documentation sections or notes that address Linux-specific considerations, such as log locations, troubleshooting steps, and integration with Linux-native tools.
  • List cross-platform tools (Azure CLI, REST API) before Windows-specific tools (PowerShell) to avoid ordering bias.
  • Highlight any differences in monitoring and reporting workflows between Windows and Linux environments.
