Summary
The documentation page for Microsoft Azure Recovery Services (MARS) agent exhibits a strong Windows bias. All restore options and examples are centered around Windows environments, referencing Windows Server System State, PowerShell for automation, and Windows-specific tools like robocopy. There is no mention of Linux support, equivalent Linux commands, or cross-platform usage, and all instructions implicitly assume a Windows operating system.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform support: Clarify whether the MARS agent is Windows-only or if Linux is supported. If Linux is not supported, make this clear early in the documentation.
- Provide Linux parity information: If Linux support exists or is planned, include equivalent restore options, commands, and examples for Linux systems.
- Mention cross-platform alternatives: If the MARS agent is Windows-only, suggest alternative Azure backup solutions for Linux users and link to relevant documentation.
- Avoid Windows-centric tool recommendations: Where possible, recommend platform-agnostic tools or provide Linux equivalents (e.g., suggest rsync for Linux instead of robocopy).
- Balance example order: If both platforms are supported, alternate or parallelize examples for Windows and Linux, rather than presenting Windows first or exclusively.
