Summary
The documentation page exhibits several forms of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (such as RoboCopy) are mentioned as primary solutions for SMB file replication, while Linux alternatives (like rsync) are only referenced for NFS scenarios. PowerShell is presented as the sole method for configuring Azure Site Recovery for scale sets, with no mention of Bash/CLI alternatives. There are references to SAP systems running on Windows with Azure Shared Disk, but no equivalent guidance for Linux-based SAP deployments. Overall, examples and tooling recommendations favor Windows environments, with Linux approaches either omitted or relegated to secondary status.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/Bash/CLI alternatives wherever PowerShell is referenced, especially for Azure Site Recovery setup.
  • Include Linux-based SAP deployment scenarios and guidance alongside Windows-specific instructions.
  • Mention Linux-native tools (such as rsync) for SMB file replication, not just NFS, and clarify when each tool is appropriate.
  • Ensure that all examples and recommendations are presented in parallel for both Windows and Linux environments, rather than prioritizing Windows.
  • Add explicit notes or sections for Linux administrators to ensure parity in disaster recovery planning.
