Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server as the migration target, with all steps, examples, and tooling (e.g., RoboCopy, Azure File Sync agent) being Windows-centric. There are no Linux migration examples, nor are Linux-compatible tools or workflows mentioned. The migration route explicitly requires moving data to Windows Server before syncing to Azure, and all troubleshooting and cut-over steps assume a Windows environment.
Recommendations
  • Add guidance for migrating from NAS directly to Azure file shares without requiring an intermediate Windows Server, if supported.
  • Include Linux-based migration examples and tools (e.g., rsync, azcopy, SMB mounting on Linux) where possible.
  • Mention Linux-compatible alternatives to RoboCopy and provide example commands for those tools.
  • Clarify whether Azure File Sync or similar hybrid cloud features are available for Linux servers, and if not, suggest best practices for Linux environments.
  • Reorder sections or add parallel Linux workflows so that Linux administrators do not feel secondary to Windows users.
