Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All supported platforms listed are Windows SKUs, with no mention of Linux or macOS support. All examples, prerequisites, and troubleshooting steps use Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, MARS Agent, PsExec, Windows Control Panel, Windows registry, etc.), and there are no instructions or alternatives for Linux systems. The documentation assumes the user is operating in a Windows environment from the outset.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform support at the beginning, including whether Linux is supported or not.
- If Linux is supported, provide equivalent instructions for Linux systems, including installation and usage of any required agents or tools.
- Include Linux-specific examples for mounting Data Box devices (e.g., using NFS mount commands on Linux).
- Offer troubleshooting steps for Linux environments, if applicable.
- If MARS Agent is Windows-only, suggest alternative backup solutions for Linux users and link to relevant documentation.
- Avoid assuming Windows as the default environment; present platform-agnostic steps where possible.
