Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric: it only references Windows Server and Azure VMs running Windows, exclusively mentions the Azure File Sync agent for Windows, and provides a Robocopy command (a Windows tool) for data recovery. There are no Linux equivalents, examples, or mentions, and the workflow assumes a Windows environment throughout.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform requirements and limitations (e.g., if Azure File Sync is Windows-only, clarify this early in the documentation).
- If Linux support is possible, provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux environments, including alternative tools (e.g., rsync instead of Robocopy).
- If Azure File Sync is not available for Linux, suggest alternative solutions for Linux users, such as using Azure File Share mounting and Linux-native sync tools.
- Add a comparison table or section outlining differences in recovery procedures between Windows and Linux.
- Ensure that cross-platform considerations are addressed in prerequisites and throughout the workflow.
