Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps and log file paths are exclusively provided using Windows conventions (e.g., C:\Program Files, C:\ProgramData), and command-line instructions reference Windows tools (cmd, net stop/start). There are no Linux or macOS equivalents or examples, despite the possibility of running VMware VMs or physical servers on non-Windows platforms. This can create friction for Linux users attempting to troubleshoot replication issues, as they must adapt instructions without guidance.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/macOS equivalents for log file locations and service management commands (e.g., systemctl, journalctl, /var/log paths).
  • Provide troubleshooting steps for common Linux distributions, especially for agent/service management and permissions.
  • Clarify whether the Azure Site Recovery Mobility agent and process server components are supported on Linux, and if so, link to relevant Linux documentation.
  • Present examples for both Windows and Linux platforms side-by-side, or clearly indicate platform-specific instructions.
  • Avoid using only Windows-specific folder paths and commands; use generic or platform-neutral language where possible.
