Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, specifically Data Protection Manager (DPM), which is a Windows-only tool. All examples, screenshots, and instructions assume the use of Windows Server, DPM, and related Windows concepts (such as NTAuthority\System, Logical Disk Manager, and protection group workflows). There are no references to Linux-based SQL Server deployments, nor are there examples or guidance for backing up SQL Server on Linux. The only automation reference is to PowerShell, further reinforcing Windows bias.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance and examples for backing up SQL Server on Linux, including supported scenarios and limitations.
- Reference and provide parity for Linux-native backup tools and workflows (e.g., Azure Backup agent for Linux, CLI commands, or REST API usage).
- Include screenshots and walkthroughs for Linux environments where SQL Server is supported.
- Mention differences in prerequisites, permissions, and backup/restore processes for Linux-based SQL Server deployments.
- Provide automation examples using Bash, Azure CLI, or other cross-platform tools, not just PowerShell.
- Clarify in the introduction and prerequisites which operating systems are supported and whether DPM is required or if alternatives exist for Linux.
