Summary
The documentation provides detailed, step-by-step examples and screenshots exclusively for Windows VMs, focusing on Windows-specific files (pagefile.sys, SQL Server tempdb) and Windows disk management tools. While Linux VMs are mentioned in a single table row regarding failback behavior, there are no Linux-specific examples, instructions, or screenshots. All walkthroughs, screenshots, and disk management references are Windows-centric, with no parity for Linux VM scenarios.
Recommendations
- Add Linux VM examples for excluding disks from replication, including typical Linux disk layouts and files (e.g., swap partitions, /tmp, database temp files).
- Provide step-by-step instructions for handling excluded disks during failover and failback for Linux VMs, including how to re-create or re-attach disks and update mount points.
- Include screenshots or command-line examples relevant to Linux (e.g., using lsblk, parted, or cloud-init for disk management).
- Clarify any differences in Azure Site Recovery behavior for Linux VMs, especially regarding drive letter assignment, mount points, and failback.
- Ensure that tables and examples consistently include both Windows and Linux scenarios where supported.
