Summary:
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, specifically Windows Server and Microsoft SQL Server, with no mention of Linux-based SQL Server deployments or migration scenarios. All examples, prerequisites, and validation steps assume a Windows Server environment, and only Windows tools (e.g., SQL Server Management Studio) are referenced. There is no guidance for users running SQL Server on Linux or for Linux-based VM migrations.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit mention of SQL Server on Linux as a supported scenario, if applicable.
- Provide parallel migration steps and prerequisites for SQL Server instances running on Linux (e.g., Ubuntu, Red Hat).
- Add examples and screenshots using Linux-based management tools (such as sqlcmd or Azure Data Studio) alongside Windows tools like SQL Server Management Studio.
- Reference Linux documentation and best practices for SQL Server deployments and migrations.
- Clarify any limitations or differences in the migration process for Linux-based SQL Server VMs.
