Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux guidance for SMB Multichannel, including explicit Linux kernel and mount command examples. However, Windows tools (robocopy, diskspd.exe) and PowerShell commands are used exclusively for performance testing and configuration verification, with no Linux equivalents or parity in example tooling. Windows configuration and verification steps are described in greater detail and appear before Linux examples. Feature registration instructions are given only for Azure Portal and Azure PowerShell, with no mention of Azure CLI or ARM templates, which are cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux equivalents for performance testing, such as using fio or dd for load generation and performance measurement.
  • Provide Linux commands for verifying SMB Multichannel configuration and status (e.g., using smbstatus, dmesg, or reviewing mount options).
  • Include Azure CLI or ARM template instructions for feature registration, not just Azure PowerShell, to improve cross-platform accessibility.
  • Balance the order of Windows and Linux sections/examples so Linux is not always presented after Windows.
  • Reference Linux documentation for SMB Multichannel alongside Windows documentation in the 'Next steps' section.
