Summary
The documentation for Microsoft Azure Backup Server (MABS) is heavily Windows-centric. Features and examples almost exclusively reference Windows Server, Windows-specific technologies (ReFS, Hyper-V, registry keys), and Windows tools (PowerShell cmdlets). There is no mention of Linux support, Linux workloads, or Linux-specific backup scenarios, nor are any Linux equivalents or examples provided. Windows features and tools are consistently presented first and often exclusively.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state the level of Linux support in MABS, if any, and document limitations.
- Add examples and instructions for backing up Linux-based VMs and workloads, if supported.
- Include Linux equivalents for Windows-centric features (e.g., registry key changes, PowerShell cmdlets), or clarify if such features are unavailable on Linux.
- Document backup and recovery procedures for Linux file systems and workloads.
- If MABS is Windows-only, clarify this early in the documentation and provide links to Azure backup solutions for Linux environments.
- Ensure parity in feature tables and examples by including Linux alongside Windows where applicable.
