Summary
The documentation page exhibits several signs of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (e.g., RoboCopy) are mentioned as recommended solutions for SMB file replication, while Linux alternatives (e.g., rsync) are only suggested for NFS scenarios. PowerShell is referenced as the sole method for configuring disaster recovery in certain VM scale set scenarios, with no mention of CLI or Linux-native approaches. The section on Azure Shared Disk DR specifically calls out Windows scenarios, and there are no explicit Linux or Bash examples provided for common administrative or recovery tasks. Overall, Windows tools and patterns are mentioned first or exclusively, and Linux parity is lacking in example coverage and tool recommendations.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/Bash equivalents for all Windows/Powershell examples, such as using az CLI or Bash scripts for DR configuration.
- Mention Linux-native tools (e.g., rsync, scp) alongside Windows tools like RoboCopy for SMB file replication, and clarify when each is appropriate.
- Include explicit guidance and examples for SAP workloads running on Linux, especially for Azure Site Recovery and storage replication scenarios.
- Where PowerShell is required, note any Linux-compatible alternatives or workarounds, or clarify platform limitations.
- Ensure that documentation sections do not assume Windows as the default platform, and provide parity in instructions and references for both OS types.
