Summary
The documentation exclusively references the 'Microsoft Azure Import/Export Tool' as a Windows executable (WAImportExport.exe), with all command-line examples using Windows-style paths (e.g., C:\, G:\) and no mention of Linux-compatible tools, commands, or usage patterns. The copy log and manifest file examples use Windows file paths and terminology ('Windows Azure Import/Export service'), and there are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives or instructions provided.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit information about platform compatibility for the Import/Export Tool (e.g., is there a Linux version or alternative?).
  • Include Linux command-line examples, using Linux path conventions (e.g., /mnt/exportdrive/).
  • Mention any cross-platform or open-source alternatives if the official tool is Windows-only.
  • Clarify whether the log and manifest files can be processed or validated using Linux tools (e.g., Python scripts, Azure CLI, or REST API).
  • Add a section addressing Linux users, including troubleshooting steps and any required dependencies or workarounds.
