Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, focusing exclusively on Windows Server restore scenarios and tools. All examples and instructions reference Windows utilities (PowerShell, robocopy, Windows Server Backup), with no mention of Linux or macOS support, equivalents, or alternatives. The MARS agent itself appears to be positioned as a Windows-only solution, and Linux users are given no guidance or acknowledgement.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state platform support (e.g., clarify if MARS agent is Windows-only, and mention alternatives for Linux/macOS if applicable).
  • If Linux/macOS support exists, provide equivalent restore instructions and examples for those platforms.
  • If MARS agent is Windows-only, link to Azure Backup solutions for Linux and macOS, and provide a comparison table.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific tools (robocopy, PowerShell) without mentioning cross-platform alternatives or noting their platform limitations.
  • Add a section addressing Linux/macOS users, with guidance or redirection.
