Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows-based virtual desktop scenarios, referencing FSLogix, roaming user profiles, folder redirection, and Windows-specific technologies (e.g., VHD/VHDX, Entra ID, AD DS). There are no examples, guidance, or mentions of Linux or macOS virtual desktop workloads, nor any cross-platform SMB usage patterns. All examples and recommendations assume Windows environments and tools.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance for Linux and macOS session hosts, including SMB mounting instructions and authentication patterns.
- Include examples of mounting Azure Files shares from Linux (e.g., using mount.cifs) and macOS.
- Discuss limitations, performance, and scale considerations for non-Windows clients.
- Clarify whether FSLogix or App Attach scenarios are supported or relevant for Linux/macOS, and provide alternatives if not.
- Add a section comparing Windows and Linux/macOS support for Azure Files in VDI scenarios.
