Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively recommending Robocopy, a Windows-only tool, for migrating files between SMB Azure file shares. All instructions assume a Windows environment, including deploying a Windows VM and using Windows command prompt syntax. There are no examples or guidance for performing similar migrations from Linux systems, nor are Linux-native tools (such as rsync or smbclient) mentioned.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent migration instructions for Linux environments, including mounting SMB shares and using tools like rsync or smbclient.
- Include Linux command-line examples alongside Windows/Robocopy examples.
- Clarify platform requirements up front and provide links to Linux migration documentation if available.
- Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., AzCopy) where appropriate and provide usage examples for both Windows and Linux.
