Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: it exclusively references Windows-specific tools (e.g., PsExec, NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM), assumes Windows file paths (C:\Program Files), and provides examples and instructions tailored to Windows environments. There are no Linux-specific examples, instructions, or mentions of restoring SQL Server databases on Linux-based Azure VMs, nor guidance for Linux file permissions, paths, or equivalent tooling. The documentation also implicitly assumes SQL Server is running on Windows, omitting any mention of SQL Server on Linux, which is supported in Azure VMs.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit guidance and examples for restoring SQL Server databases on Linux-based Azure VMs, including Linux file paths and permissions.
  • Provide Linux equivalents for Windows-only tools and commands (e.g., alternatives to PsExec for privilege escalation, instructions for mounting Azure File Shares on Linux, and managing file permissions).
  • Include T-SQL restore examples that use Linux-style paths and clarify any differences in restore procedures on Linux.
  • Mention and link to documentation for SQL Server on Linux in Azure VMs, and clarify any platform-specific limitations or requirements.
  • Ensure that instructions for creating and editing configuration files (such as ExtensionSettingsOverrides.json) include Linux file system locations and syntax.
  • Where screenshots or UI references are platform-specific, note any differences for Linux users or provide alternative visuals.
