Summary
The documentation for Microsoft Azure Backup Server (MABS) is heavily focused on Windows environments, with all examples, features, and instructions referencing Windows Server, Windows tools (such as registry keys and PowerShell cmdlets), and Windows-specific workloads. There is no mention of Linux or macOS support, nor are there examples or instructions for non-Windows platforms. Features such as item-level recovery, backup, and restore are described only for Windows-based VMs and workloads. Even when VMware is supported, the recovery features are limited to VMs running Windows. The documentation assumes the user is operating in a Windows ecosystem and does not provide parity or guidance for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform support and limitations at the top of the documentation, clarifying whether Linux/macOS are supported or not.
- If Linux VM backup or recovery is supported, add equivalent examples and instructions for Linux workloads, including command-line examples and supported tools.
- If Linux/macOS are not supported, provide guidance or links to alternative Azure backup solutions for those platforms.
- Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (such as registry keys, PowerShell cmdlets) without noting platform applicability.
- Include a comparison table of supported features for Windows, Linux, and macOS workloads to clarify parity.
