Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, referencing only Windows Server, Windows Client, and Microsoft-specific tools (such as DPM and Azure Backup Server) without any mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform considerations. There are no troubleshooting steps or examples for Linux-based systems, nor is it clarified whether the guidance is applicable to non-Windows environments.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state whether Azure Backup Server supports Linux or is Windows-only. If Linux is supported, include troubleshooting steps and examples for Linux environments.
- If the product is Windows-only, clarify this at the beginning of the documentation to set expectations for Linux users.
- Where possible, provide parity in documentation by including Linux command-line examples (e.g., Bash) or references to Linux backup/recovery tools if supported.
- Mention any cross-platform limitations or alternative solutions for Linux users, such as using Azure Backup for Linux VMs or other supported agents.
