Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows environments. It references Windows-specific tools (e.g., MinimumPrivilegedUser.exe in %ProgramFiles%), assumes use of Windows command prompt, and only mentions Windows/Domain accounts and SQL authentication. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based SQL Server deployments, nor is there mention of Linux command-line equivalents or cross-platform considerations.
Recommendations
- Provide instructions and examples for provisioning least privileged accounts on SQL Server running on Linux, including relevant command-line tools and file paths.
- Clarify whether the MinimumPrivilegedUser.exe utility is available or supported on Linux, or suggest alternative methods for Linux environments.
- Include examples using Bash or Linux shell, and mention how to handle authentication and account creation for SQL Server on Linux.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and offer guidance for both Windows and Linux users to ensure parity.
