Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux guidance for SMB Multichannel, including explicit Linux kernel and mount command examples. However, performance testing and verification sections focus heavily on Windows tools (diskspd.exe, robocopy, PowerShell), with no Linux equivalents or parity in example commands. Windows configuration and troubleshooting steps are more detailed and presented before Linux, and registration instructions for features only mention Azure PowerShell (which is cross-platform but often Windows-centric in usage).
Recommendations
  • Include Linux equivalents for performance testing (e.g., fio, dd) and verification steps (e.g., using smbstatus, dmesg, or other Linux tools to verify multichannel connections).
  • Provide example commands for mounting and testing SMB shares on Linux, similar to the detailed Windows PowerShell and diskspd.exe examples.
  • Add troubleshooting steps and configuration verification for Linux clients, such as checking kernel modules, CIFS mount options, and network configuration.
  • Clarify that Azure PowerShell is cross-platform and provide CLI examples (az CLI) for feature registration, which is more commonly used on Linux/macOS.
  • Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows examples are given equal prominence.
