Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, specifically Hyper-V on Windows Server. All setup and command-line instructions are for Windows tools (e.g., .exe installers, CMD commands), and there are no Linux or macOS equivalents or guidance. The documentation assumes the use of Windows-only components (Hyper-V, MARS agent, .exe installers), and all examples and screenshots are from Windows environments. There is no mention of how to perform similar tasks from Linux or macOS, nor any cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state early in the documentation that the process is only supported on Windows/Hyper-V, and clarify if Linux/macOS hosts are unsupported.
  • If any steps can be performed from Linux/macOS (e.g., Azure portal operations, scripting via Azure CLI), provide equivalent instructions or note compatibility.
  • Where possible, provide PowerShell and CMD examples alongside any available cross-platform CLI (e.g., Azure CLI) commands.
  • If the MARS agent or Site Recovery provider is Windows-only, clearly state this and link to Linux disaster recovery documentation for parity.
  • Consider adding a section for Linux-based hypervisors or linking to relevant documentation for non-Windows environments.
