Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All deployment and usage instructions for Azure Backup Server are centered around Windows VMs, with explicit references to creating Windows Server VMs, using Windows-specific tools (e.g., ReFS, VSS), and providing only Windows-centric examples (such as attaching disks to Windows VMs and using PowerShell for SSRS configuration). There is no mention of Linux VM setup, nor are there examples or instructions for Linux environments, even though Azure VMware Solution can host Linux VMs. The documentation also assumes the use of Windows Update and Windows domain joining, further reinforcing the bias.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions and examples for deploying Azure Backup Server on Linux VMs, if supported.
- Include parity in disk attachment and storage pool configuration for Linux VMs, referencing Linux tools and commands.
- Provide guidance for application consistent backups on Linux, including sample pre/post scripts and integration with Linux backup tools.
- Clarify any limitations or support boundaries for Linux VMs in Azure VMware Solution and Azure Backup Server.
- If Azure Backup Server is Windows-only, state this clearly at the beginning and provide alternative solutions for Linux VM backup.
- Balance PowerShell examples with equivalent Bash or shell commands where applicable.
