Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All migration steps rely on Windows Server and RoboCopy, a Windows-only tool, with no Linux/macOS alternatives or guidance. Windows-specific networking, authentication, and troubleshooting are discussed in detail, while Linux is only briefly mentioned in VPN configuration links. There are no examples or instructions for performing the migration from Linux or macOS systems, nor are cross-platform tools (e.g., rsync, smbclient) referenced.
Recommendations
- Add a parallel migration workflow for Linux/macOS environments, including supported tools (e.g., rsync, smbclient, cifs-utils) for copying files to DataBox and Azure file shares.
- Provide Linux/macOS-specific examples for mounting Azure file shares and performing incremental file copy operations.
- Discuss file permission and metadata preservation strategies for non-Windows platforms.
- Reference cross-platform tools and scripts where possible, and clarify any limitations or differences in fidelity.
- Include troubleshooting guidance for Linux/macOS users, especially around SMB mounting, authentication, and performance tuning.
