Summary
The documentation is generally cross-platform for most backup management tasks, focusing on the Azure portal UI. However, in the section about reinstalling the VMSnapshot backup extension, there is a notable Windows bias: the Windows instructions are much more detailed, use PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (services.msc, regedit, command prompt, registry edits), and are presented first. The Linux instructions are minimal, lacking detail and parity with the Windows steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux instructions with equivalent detail to the Windows section, including troubleshooting, agent/service restart steps, and any relevant commands.
  • Include Linux examples and command-line instructions where PowerShell is used for Windows.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel or clearly separated, rather than Windows-first.
  • Mention Linux-specific tools or patterns where appropriate (e.g., systemctl for agent management, file system paths, etc.).
  • Clarify any differences in extension management between Windows and Linux VMs.
