Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server Failover Clustering and its concepts, with all terminology, requirements, and operational details framed in the context of Windows Server. There are no references to Linux-based clustering, nor any examples or guidance for Linux or cross-platform users. All technical patterns (e.g., SMB file share, Windows cluster quorum) are Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Clarify early in the documentation that Azure Stack Edge clustering is only supported on Windows Server, if that is the case. If Linux-based clustering is possible, add equivalent Linux examples and terminology.
  • If SMB file shares are required, mention compatibility with Linux-based SMB servers (e.g., Samba) and provide setup guidance.
  • If cloud witness or local witness can be configured from non-Windows systems, provide instructions or note cross-platform compatibility.
  • Where possible, use neutral terminology (e.g., 'cluster witness' instead of 'Windows Server Failover Clustering witness') and provide links or references for Linux/macOS users.
  • If Linux/macOS are not supported, explicitly state this to set user expectations.
