Summary:
The documentation is heavily focused on the Microsoft Azure Recovery Services (MARS) Agent, which is a Windows-only backup solution. All instructions, screenshots, and tool references are specific to Windows environments (e.g., MARS management console, %ProgramFiles% paths, Windows-style UI navigation). There are no Linux equivalents, examples, or mentions, and the documentation implicitly assumes the user is operating on Windows systems.
Recommendations:
- Clearly state at the beginning of the documentation that the MARS Agent is only supported on Windows, and provide links to equivalent Azure Backup solutions for Linux (such as Azure Backup for Linux VMs or Azure Backup Server).
- Where possible, add a comparison table or section outlining backup options for both Windows and Linux, with links to relevant documentation for Linux users.
- If any cross-platform features exist (e.g., Azure Backup Reports, Azure Monitor integration), provide Linux-specific instructions or examples alongside the Windows ones.
- Avoid using only Windows-specific terminology and paths without clarification; if the product is Windows-only, make this explicit to avoid confusion for Linux users.
- For antivirus configuration, mention that the guidance is for Windows and provide a note or link for Linux-based backup agent antivirus configuration if applicable.
