Summary
The documentation for the Microsoft Azure Recovery Services (MARS) agent is heavily Windows-centric. All restore options, examples, and tool references (PowerShell, robocopy, Windows Server Backup) are specific to Windows environments. There is no mention of Linux or macOS support, nor are any equivalent examples or tools provided for those platforms. This creates a significant barrier for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform support for the MARS agent (e.g., if Linux/macOS are not supported, clarify early in the documentation).
- If Linux/macOS support exists or is planned, provide equivalent restore instructions, examples, and tool recommendations for those platforms.
- Include cross-platform command-line examples (e.g., bash scripts, Linux utilities) alongside PowerShell and Windows tool references.
- Reorganize documentation to clarify platform limitations and avoid implying universal applicability when only Windows is supported.
