Summary
The documentation frequently references Windows-specific file paths, services, and command-line tools (e.g., C:\Program Files, %PROGRAMDATA%, cmd, net stop/start), and provides troubleshooting steps and log locations only for Windows environments. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or examples, despite the fact that Azure Site Recovery supports replication of both VMware VMs and physical servers, which could include Linux systems. This creates friction for Linux users attempting to troubleshoot replication issues.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific troubleshooting steps, including log file locations (e.g., /var/log/...), service names, and commands (systemctl, journalctl, etc.) where applicable.
  • Clarify which troubleshooting steps apply to Windows-only environments and which are relevant for Linux-based source machines.
  • Provide parallel examples for Linux/macOS systems when referencing file paths, permissions, and service management.
  • Explicitly state OS requirements or limitations for each troubleshooting step if certain features are Windows-only.
