Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by referencing the PowerShell cmdlet 'Invoke-StorageSyncFileRecall' as the only method for recalling files, without mentioning any Linux/macOS alternatives or clarifying platform limitations. Azure File Sync is inherently a Windows Server feature, but the documentation does not explicitly state this, nor does it address cross-platform considerations or provide Linux/macOS parity in examples or tooling.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Azure File Sync and its management tools (such as PowerShell cmdlets) are Windows Server-only, to set expectations for Linux/macOS users.
  • If possible, mention any cross-platform alternatives or clarify that no Linux/macOS equivalents exist for file recall and management.
  • Add a note about platform requirements and limitations early in the documentation.
  • Consider providing guidance or links for users seeking cross-platform file sync solutions.
