Summary:
The documentation exclusively describes backup and recovery procedures for Microsoft Exchange Server using Microsoft Azure Backup Server (MABS), which is a Windows-only tool. All examples, instructions, and screenshots are based on the Windows GUI and Windows file paths. There is no mention of Linux-based Exchange alternatives, Linux backup agents, or cross-platform considerations. The documentation assumes a Windows environment throughout.
Recommendations:
- Clarify early in the documentation that MABS and Exchange Server are Windows-only, and explicitly state platform limitations.
- If Azure Backup supports Linux workloads or other mail servers (e.g., Postfix, Dovecot), provide parallel documentation or links for Linux backup scenarios.
- Where possible, mention or link to Azure Backup documentation for Linux servers, including agent installation and backup procedures.
- Add a note or section addressing the lack of Linux support for this scenario, and suggest alternative solutions for Linux-based mail servers.
- Ensure that future documentation for backup scenarios includes both Windows and Linux examples where supported.
