Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by exclusively referencing SQL Server (a Microsoft/Windows-centric database), using Windows-style VM/server names (e.g., testSQLVM), and omitting any mention of Linux-based SQL deployments or restoration scenarios. All examples and instructions assume the SQL instance is running on a Windows VM, with no guidance for Linux VMs or for restoring other database types (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL) that are commonly run on Linux. There are no examples or notes about differences or requirements for Linux-based SQL Server VMs, nor about using CLI commands in a Linux shell environment.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit guidance and examples for restoring SQL Server databases on Linux-based Azure VMs, including any differences in CLI usage, file paths, permissions, or prerequisites.
  • Mention and provide parity for Linux shell environments (bash, zsh) in CLI command examples, including notes about quoting, file paths, and environment setup.
  • Clarify whether the documented process applies to both Windows and Linux SQL Server VMs, and highlight any platform-specific considerations.
  • Include references or links to documentation for restoring other database types (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL) on Azure VMs, especially those commonly run on Linux.
  • Use neutral VM/server naming conventions in examples (e.g., avoid 'testSQLVM', use 'testSQLServer' or 'testDBServer') and clarify OS assumptions where relevant.
