Summary
The documentation is exclusively focused on installing and managing the Azure File Sync agent extension for Arc-enabled Windows Servers. It explicitly states that Linux servers are not supported, and all examples, settings, and instructions are tailored for Windows environments (e.g., Windows file paths, Windows services, Windows-specific tools like PowerShell). There are no Linux equivalents, examples, or alternative guidance provided, and Windows terminology and tools are used throughout.
Recommendations
- Clearly state Linux is not supported at the top of the article and link to alternatives for Linux file sync if available.
- Provide a comparison table or section outlining file sync options for Linux Arc-enabled servers, even if Azure File Sync is not supported.
- If future support for Linux is planned, add a note about roadmap or preview features.
- Where possible, use more platform-neutral language in introductory sections and clarify platform-specific limitations.
- Add links to documentation for Linux file sharing/sync solutions in Azure (e.g., NFS, SMB on Linux, third-party sync tools) to help Linux users find alternatives.
