Summary
The documentation exclusively provides a PowerShell script for managing system state backup policies with the MARS agent, which is a Windows-centric tool. All instructions, examples, and referenced modules (MSOnlineBackup, OBPolicy, etc.) are specific to Windows environments. There are no Linux or cross-platform examples, nor is there mention of equivalent Linux tools or procedures.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples for Linux environments, such as shell scripts or commands using native Linux backup tools (e.g., rsync, tar, cron, or third-party solutions).
- Clearly state platform limitations and provide guidance for Linux administrators on how to achieve similar backup policy management.
- Include a comparison table or section outlining differences and similarities between Windows (MARS agent/PowerShell) and Linux backup management approaches.
- Reference or link to documentation for Linux backup solutions where applicable.
- If MARS agent is Windows-only, explicitly mention this and suggest alternatives for Linux.
