Summary
The documentation is strongly biased toward Windows, with explicit statements that SAP does not support SQL Server on Linux for SAP workloads. All configuration, deployment, and operational examples are Windows-centric, referencing Windows Server, NTFS, Windows command line tools, and Windows-specific Azure VM images. There are no Linux equivalents or examples, and Linux is only mentioned to clarify its lack of support. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., NTFS, D:\ drive, Windows command prompt, Windows Server versions) are referenced exclusively and repeatedly.
Recommendations
- Clearly state at the top that Linux is not supported for SAP workloads with SQL Server, and link to any official SAP or Microsoft documentation confirming this.
- If Linux support becomes available in the future, provide equivalent Linux examples, such as using ext4/xfs filesystems, Linux VM images, and Linux command line tools.
- Where possible, mention alternative approaches or limitations for Linux users, even if only to clarify that the guidance does not apply.
- Consider a separate section or page for Linux deployments (if/when supported), to ensure parity and avoid confusion.
- Review all command-line and configuration instructions to ensure they are not unnecessarily Windows-specific if cross-platform support is added.
