Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All instructions, prerequisites, and examples assume the use of Windows Server (specifically Windows Server 2022/2019 Datacenter), Windows file paths (C:\, D:\), Windows domain joining, and Windows-only tools (PowerShell, Windows Update, .NET Framework). There are no references to Linux-based installations, Linux VM images, or cross-platform alternatives. The only command-line example provided is a PowerShell cmdlet, with no Linux shell equivalent. The documentation does not mention whether Azure Backup Server can be installed or operated on Linux, nor does it provide guidance for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state platform limitations: If Azure Backup Server is Windows-only, clarify this early in the documentation.
  • If Linux support exists or is planned, add equivalent instructions for Linux VM images, including prerequisites, installation steps, and troubleshooting.
  • Provide Linux shell (bash) equivalents for command-line operations, such as connectivity checks.
  • Reference Linux tools and patterns where appropriate (e.g., package managers, systemd services, Linux file paths).
  • Include guidance for mixed environments, such as backing up Linux workloads or integrating with Linux-based infrastructure.
  • If only Windows is supported, add a section explaining how to protect Linux workloads using other Azure Backup solutions.
