Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. When describing how to move data to the Archive tier, it lists Azure PowerShell as the first method and provides a direct link to PowerShell instructions, while the alternative (Lifecycle Management policy) is mentioned second and less prominently. There are no Linux/macOS-specific CLI examples or references to Bash, Azure CLI, or other cross-platform tools. The documentation does not mention Linux-specific workflows or provide parity for users who may not use PowerShell.
Recommendations
- Add Azure CLI examples for moving blobs to the Archive tier, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux/macOS.
- Explicitly mention that both PowerShell and CLI methods are available and provide equal prominence to each.
- Include sample commands for Linux/macOS environments, such as Bash scripts or references to az CLI.
- Clarify that Data Box Gateway supports NFS and SMB, and provide guidance for mounting and interacting with shares from Linux systems.
- Ensure screenshots and UI instructions do not assume a Windows environment.
