Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows configuration and verification steps for SMB Multichannel are presented in detail, including PowerShell commands and references to Windows tools (robocopy, diskspd.exe), while Linux configuration is covered but lacks equivalent verification or performance testing examples. Feature registration instructions are only provided for Azure PowerShell and the Azure portal, with no mention of CLI or Linux-native alternatives. References to Windows documentation are more frequent and prominent than Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific verification steps for SMB Multichannel (e.g., using smbstatus, dmesg, or CIFS utils to confirm multichannel connections).
  • Provide Linux-native performance testing examples (e.g., using fio or iozone) alongside Windows tools like diskspd.exe.
  • Include Azure CLI instructions for feature registration to improve parity for Linux users.
  • Reference official Linux SMB documentation or guides in addition to Windows documentation.
  • Ensure that examples and instructions are presented in a cross-platform order, or grouped by OS, rather than Windows-first.
  • Where PowerShell is used, offer Bash or shell script equivalents for common administrative tasks.
