Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows environments. All examples and instructions assume the use of Windows tools (e.g., Registry Editor, Certificate Import Wizard, PowerShell scripts), and there are no Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives provided. The documentation presumes Azure Backup Server is installed on Windows and omits any guidance for Linux-based administration or scripting. PowerShell is used exclusively for scripting tasks, and Windows registry modifications are required for configuration. Linux users are not addressed, and no Bash or Linux-native instructions are present.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions and examples for Linux environments, such as how to import certificates using Linux tools (e.g., openssl, update-ca-certificates).
  • Provide Bash script equivalents for PowerShell scripts, or clarify if the functionality is unavailable on Linux.
  • Clarify platform requirements early in the documentation (e.g., if MABS is Windows-only, state this explicitly).
  • Where registry edits are required, suggest alternative configuration methods for Linux (if supported), or note platform limitations.
  • Include notes or sections for Linux administrators, even if only to state that certain features/tools are not available.
  • If possible, provide cross-platform CLI examples (e.g., using Azure CLI, REST API) instead of only Windows GUI or PowerShell.
