Summary
The documentation page, while targeting SAP deployments on Azure with a focus on Linux (as indicated by ms.tgt_pltfrm: vm-linux), exhibits several instances of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., Windows Server Active Directory, RDP, SMB, Windows failover clustering, Azure Disk Encryption for Windows) are mentioned before or more prominently than their Linux equivalents. PowerShell is referenced for image discovery and migration scripts, but equivalent Linux CLI or Bash examples are not provided. Some examples and guidance are Windows-centric, and Linux-specific instructions or alternatives are either missing or referenced only after Windows. The documentation lacks parity in providing Linux-first or Linux-specific examples, especially in areas like security, networking, and high availability.
Recommendations
- Ensure that all examples using PowerShell or Windows tools are accompanied by equivalent Azure CLI or Bash examples for Linux.
- When describing features like Active Directory, RDP, SMB, or Windows failover clustering, provide Linux alternatives (e.g., LDAP, SSH, NFS, Pacemaker) with equal prominence and detail.
- In sections discussing high availability, networking, and security, start with Linux-native solutions (e.g., Pacemaker, SSH, Linux DNS) before mentioning Windows options.
- Review all references to Windows-specific patterns and tools to ensure Linux equivalents are included and described in detail.
- Add explicit Linux-focused migration and deployment examples, especially where scripts or automation are referenced (e.g., provide Bash scripts alongside PowerShell).
- Clarify any limitations or differences for Linux deployments, and ensure guidance is actionable for Linux administrators.
