Summary
The documentation provides extensive Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for configuring selective disk backup and restore, with PowerShell examples being prominent and detailed. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and there are no Linux shell (bash) or macOS-specific command examples. Windows-specific tools and terminology (such as drive C, BitLocker, PowerShell cmdlets) are mentioned before their Linux equivalents, and Linux instructions are limited to notes about required utilities (lsblk, lsscsi) rather than full example workflows. No bash or Linux-native scripting examples are provided, and troubleshooting or advanced configuration is shown only with PowerShell or CLI, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users unfamiliar with these tools.
Recommendations
- Add bash shell examples for common operations (e.g., using az CLI from bash, with Linux-style variable usage and scripting).
- Provide explicit Linux/macOS workflows for selective disk backup and restore, including troubleshooting steps and automation.
- Ensure parity in advanced scenarios: show how to modify protection, restore disks, and reset exclusion settings using Linux-native tools and shell scripts.
- Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide guidance for installing and using it on Linux/macOS.
- Balance terminology: mention Linux/macOS specifics (e.g., root filesystem, dm-crypt) alongside Windows terms, and avoid Windows-first ordering in explanations.
