Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows environments, with all instructions, screenshots, and examples referencing Windows-specific tools (Task Scheduler, Event Viewer), PowerShell cmdlets/scripts, and file paths. There is no mention of Linux equivalents, nor any guidance for users running Azure File Sync agents on Linux servers. This creates a strong Windows bias and excludes Linux administrators from following the documented procedures.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance for Linux environments, including supported distributions and prerequisites for Azure File Sync on Linux (if available).
- Provide Linux-specific examples for each step, such as using cron or systemd timers instead of Task Scheduler, and relevant log file locations or commands for monitoring sync status.
- Offer Bash or shell script alternatives to PowerShell cmdlets/scripts, or clarify if PowerShell Core is required and how to install/use it on Linux.
- Include screenshots or terminal output examples from Linux systems where applicable.
- Clearly state platform limitations or support status at the beginning of the documentation, so users know if Linux is supported and what differences to expect.
