Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, specifically Hyper-V on Windows Server, and System Center Virtual Machine Manager (VMM). All examples, prerequisites, and supported scenarios are described in terms of Windows tools and patterns, such as PowerShell, Hyper-V Replica, and VMM. There are no Linux equivalents or examples, and Linux-based hypervisors (e.g., KVM, Xen) are not mentioned. Automation is described only via PowerShell, with no reference to Bash, CLI, or Linux-native tooling.
Recommendations
- Add explicit statements about Linux support or limitations for Azure Site Recovery in Hyper-V scenarios.
- Provide examples or guidance for disaster recovery from Linux-based hypervisors if supported, or link to relevant documentation for Linux environments.
- Include automation examples using Azure CLI or REST API from Linux environments, not just PowerShell.
- Mention Linux guest OS support and any differences in replication or failover processes compared to Windows guests.
- Clarify whether tools like the Recovery Services agent or Deployment Planner are available for Linux hosts, and provide installation instructions if so.
- If only Windows/Hyper-V is supported, state this clearly at the beginning to set expectations for cross-platform users.
