Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows tools and clustering frameworks (e.g., Windows Failover Cluster, Scale-Out File Services, SIOS Datakeeper) are frequently mentioned first and in greater detail than their Linux equivalents. Many examples and recommendations (especially for SQL Server and SAP Central Services) focus on Windows-specific technologies, with Linux alternatives (Pacemaker, drdb, glusterfs) described later or in less detail. Some sections, such as multi-SID clustering and disaster recovery, provide more comprehensive guidance for Windows than Linux. Oracle Linux is explicitly noted as lacking support for Pacemaker, with only third-party options suggested. There are also instances where only Windows or Windows-first examples are given, and Linux guidance is less prominent or missing.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux and Windows examples are presented in parallel, with equal detail and prominence.
  • Provide explicit Linux command-line examples (e.g., shell scripts, systemd, Pacemaker configuration snippets) alongside Windows/Powershell instructions.
  • Expand documentation for Linux-based high availability and disaster recovery scenarios, especially for Oracle Linux and multi-SID clustering.
  • List Linux tools and frameworks (Pacemaker, drdb, glusterfs) before or alongside Windows equivalents in each relevant section.
  • Clarify support and configuration steps for Linux distributions (SUSE, Red Hat, Oracle Linux) in all scenarios, including storage and clustering.
  • Add troubleshooting and operational guidance for Linux users where currently only Windows guidance is provided.
