Summary
The documentation generally maintains parity between Linux and Windows, providing separate, detailed sections for both platforms regarding SAP Central Services DR. However, there are subtle signs of Windows bias: Windows clustering concepts (WSFC, cloud witness, SMB, robocopy) are often mentioned with more familiar Microsoft tooling and terminology, and in some tables and sections, Windows/SMB tools are listed before Linux/NFS equivalents. Some references and examples (e.g., robocopy for SMB, cloud witness for quorum) are Windows-specific, while Linux alternatives (like rsync for NFS) are described more generically. The backup and restore matrix lists Windows/SMB before Linux/NFS, and some features (like Azure Backup for NFS) are not supported, which may reinforce a perception of Windows-first support.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux/NFS tools (e.g., rsync) are given equal prominence and detail as Windows/SMB tools (e.g., robocopy), including explicit command examples or links to official guidance.
  • Where possible, alternate the order of presentation between Windows and Linux examples/tables to avoid a consistent Windows-first pattern.
  • Provide more detailed Linux-specific guidance (e.g., fencing, cluster reconfiguration, storage replication) to match the specificity of Windows/WSFC/robocopy instructions.
  • Explicitly mention any feature gaps (such as Azure Backup not supporting NFS) and suggest alternative solutions or workarounds for Linux users.
  • Include links to authoritative Linux documentation (e.g., Pacemaker, rsync, NFS best practices) alongside Microsoft/Windows resources.
