Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows instructions and tools (such as Robocopy and net use) are presented first and in greater detail, with extensive command and output examples. Linux instructions are minimal, lacking detailed examples for mounting SMB shares and copying data (no rsync or cp sample commands). Windows-specific tools (Robocopy, File Explorer, Notepad) are referenced exclusively, with no mention of Linux equivalents. The copy optimization section is entirely focused on Robocopy parameters and sessions, with no Linux alternatives or performance guidance.
Recommendations
  • Provide detailed Linux SMB mounting instructions, including sample mount commands with correct SMB versions and authentication options.
  • Include Linux file copy tool examples (e.g., rsync, cp, smbclient) with sample commands and output.
  • Offer performance optimization guidance for Linux, such as recommended rsync flags, parallelization strategies, or alternatives to Robocopy.
  • Add troubleshooting steps and error log viewing instructions for Linux users, referencing common Linux text editors (e.g., nano, vim, less) instead of Notepad.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel sections or tables, ensuring equal detail and prominence.
  • Reference cross-platform tools (e.g., AzCopy) where possible, and clarify their usage on Linux.
