Summary
The documentation for removing an Azure Site Recovery replication appliance shows a mild Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tools (e.g., Services.msc, World Wide Web Publishing Service) and browser instructions tailored to Microsoft Edge. There are no explicit Linux/macOS instructions or examples for equivalent steps, such as restarting services or clearing browser caches. The appliance itself is described as a VM, but the steps assume a Windows environment, potentially creating friction for users running the appliance on Linux or other platforms.
Recommendations
  • Clarify whether the Azure Site Recovery replication appliance can run on Linux or macOS. If so, provide equivalent instructions for service management (e.g., systemctl for Linux) and browser cache clearing for Chrome/Firefox on Linux/macOS.
  • When referencing tools like Services.msc or specific Windows services, note the Linux/macOS equivalents or state if the step is Windows-only.
  • Include cross-platform examples or a note about platform limitations if the appliance is strictly Windows-based.
  • List browser cache clearing instructions for multiple browsers and operating systems, not just Microsoft Edge on Windows.
