Summary
The documentation is generally cross-platform and covers SAP workloads on Azure, which can run on both Linux and Windows. However, there are several instances of Windows bias: PowerShell is mentioned as the only supported method for configuring Azure Site Recovery for VMs in scale sets with FD=1, with no Bash/CLI alternative; Windows-specific tools like RoboCopy are recommended for SMB file replication before Linux alternatives; and the Azure Site Recovery with Azure Shared Disk section is explicitly for Windows. Linux equivalents (e.g., rsync) are mentioned but often after Windows tools, and some examples lack parity in detail.
Recommendations
  • Where PowerShell is the only supported method, clarify if/when Bash/CLI support is planned, and provide guidance for Linux users (e.g., running PowerShell Core on Linux, or using Azure CLI where possible).
  • When recommending file replication tools, present Linux and Windows options together, or list Linux-first options (e.g., rsync for NFS, SMB alternatives for Linux) before Windows tools like RoboCopy.
  • Add explicit Linux examples or references where only Windows tools or scenarios are described, especially for storage and DR scripting.
  • Ensure that any Windows-specific sections are clearly marked as such, and provide Linux-specific guidance or links where relevant.
