Summary:
The documentation is exclusively focused on Windows environments, both in its intent and technical instructions. All examples, prerequisites, and installation steps are for Windows machines only, with explicit references to Windows tools (e.g., .exe installers, Windows-specific wizards, and settings). There is no mention of Linux support, alternatives, or parity, and the MARS agent is presented as a Windows-only solution.
Recommendations:
- Clearly state in the introduction and prerequisites whether the MARS agent is supported only on Windows, and if so, provide guidance or links for Linux backup solutions (such as Azure Backup for Linux VMs or other agents).
- If Linux support is available or planned, add equivalent Linux installation and configuration instructions, including command-line examples and references to Linux tools.
- Avoid using 'Windows machines' as the default or only example; instead, use more inclusive phrasing or provide parallel sections for Linux where applicable.
- Mention any limitations or differences in backup capabilities between Windows and Linux environments, and direct users to appropriate documentation for Linux scenarios.
- If the MARS agent is not available for Linux, explicitly state this and suggest alternative backup strategies for Linux workloads.
