Summary
The documentation exhibits moderate Windows bias, particularly in the Virtual Machines and Storage sections. PowerShell is mentioned as the only supported method for configuring disaster recovery for VMs in scale sets with FD=1, with no Linux CLI or Azure CLI alternative. Storage replication examples include Windows-centric tools like RoboCopy for SMB shares, while Linux equivalents (e.g., rsync) are mentioned but less prominently. The reference to Azure Site Recovery with Azure Shared Disk is explicitly for Windows, with no mention of Linux support or alternatives. In several cases, Windows tools and patterns are listed before Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
- Provide Azure CLI or Bash script examples for disaster recovery setup, especially for scale sets with FD=1, to ensure Linux parity with PowerShell.
- Clarify whether Azure Site Recovery with Azure Shared Disk supports Linux, and if not, suggest Linux-compatible alternatives.
- Present Linux tools (e.g., rsync) and Windows tools (e.g., RoboCopy) equally, and avoid listing Windows tools first.
- Explicitly mention Linux support or limitations in all tool and pattern recommendations.
- Where only Windows methods are available, note the gap and provide guidance or workarounds for Linux users.
