Summary
The documentation provides coverage for both Windows and Linux deployments of SAP ASE on Azure, but exhibits several Windows biases. Windows-specific tools (Storage Spaces, NTFS, Windows Firewall) are mentioned before or in more detail than their Linux equivalents (LVM2, XFS, Linux firewall). The 'Specifics to SAP ASE on Windows' section is more detailed than the Linux equivalent, and the installation guide link is only provided for Windows. In the DBACockpit section, firewall configuration instructions are only given for Windows, omitting Linux firewall guidance. There are no PowerShell or command-line examples, but the overall pattern is to mention Windows tools and procedures first or exclusively, with Linux details often secondary or missing.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent installation guide links for Linux distributions (SLES, RHEL) alongside the Windows installation guide.
- Include Linux firewall configuration instructions (e.g., using firewalld or iptables) in the DBACockpit section, not just Windows Firewall.
- When discussing disk aggregation and file systems, give equal detail to Linux tools (LVM2, XFS) as to Windows Storage Spaces and NTFS.
- Where Windows-specific settings (e.g., Lock Pages in Memory) are discussed, include Linux equivalents or note if not applicable.
- Ensure that examples, tables, and recommendations are presented in a balanced way, with Linux and Windows options side-by-side and equally detailed.
- Add Linux command-line examples (e.g., for saptune, LVM setup, XFS formatting) where appropriate.
- Review the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are treated equally, rather than Windows-first.
