Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias in several ways. The only explicit file path example given for Microsoft SQL Server backup metadata uses a Windows-style path (e.g., 'C:\MSSQL_BKP\'), and there are no Linux-specific examples or instructions for SQL Server or other databases. The documentation does not mention Linux tools, shell commands, or provide parity for Linux environments, especially for SQL Server, which is available on Linux. Additionally, authentication file creation is described as occurring in Azure Cloud Shell, but no distinction is made between Bash and PowerShell, nor are Linux-specific usage patterns or file paths shown.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples for all supported databases, especially for Microsoft SQL Server (e.g., use '/var/opt/mssql/backups/' as a metadata file location).
  • Include both Windows and Linux file path formats in configuration examples and documentation.
  • Explicitly mention and demonstrate usage of the AzAcSnap tool on Linux environments, including shell commands and environment setup.
  • Clarify instructions for authentication file creation in both Bash and PowerShell environments, and note any differences for Linux users.
  • Add notes or sections highlighting cross-platform compatibility and any platform-specific considerations.
