Summary:
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias in several areas: Windows-specific examples and references (such as PowerShell and Windows tutorials) are given without equivalent Linux instructions; Windows terminology and tools are mentioned first or exclusively; and some advanced scenarios (e.g., restoring VMs with special network configurations or domain controllers) focus on Windows workflows. Linux-specific guidance is minimal or absent, and there are few, if any, CLI or Linux-native examples.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux examples and references wherever Windows/PowerShell examples are given (e.g., using Azure CLI or Bash scripts for restore operations).
- Include links to Linux-specific documentation (e.g., restoring Linux VMs, handling cloud-init, or troubleshooting Linux agent issues).
- Balance references to Windows and Linux in scenario tables and guidance, ensuring both platforms are equally represented.
- When mentioning tools or workflows (such as PowerShell), also mention and provide examples for their Linux/CLI counterparts.
- Add explicit notes or sections for Linux-specific post-restore steps, such as handling SSH keys, cloud-init, and agent installation.
- Review scenario coverage (e.g., SQL VMs, domain controllers) to ensure Linux equivalents (e.g., restoring MySQL/PostgreSQL VMs, LDAP servers) are addressed.
