Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All operational steps, configuration instructions, and scripts assume the Azure Backup Server is running on Windows. Registry edits, certificate installation, and scripting are exclusively described using Windows tools (Registry Editor, Certificate Import Wizard, PowerShell). There are no examples or guidance for performing these tasks on Linux systems, nor is there mention of Linux-based Azure Backup Server support or alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Clarify platform support: Explicitly state whether Azure Backup Server supports Linux hosts. If not, mention this early in the documentation.
  • Provide Linux alternatives: For each Windows-specific step (e.g., registry edits, certificate installation, PowerShell scripts), offer equivalent instructions for Linux environments if supported (e.g., editing configuration files, using OpenSSL, Bash scripts).
  • Balance examples: Include both Windows and Linux command-line examples for scripting and automation tasks.
  • Mention cross-platform tools: Where possible, suggest platform-agnostic tools or approaches (e.g., using REST APIs, cross-platform scripting languages).
  • Reorder instructions: Avoid always presenting Windows steps first; if Linux is supported, alternate or group by platform.
