Summary
The documentation provides several examples and instructions that default to Windows tools, paths, and workflows (e.g., using C:\ paths, referencing Notepad/OneNote, and SQL Server Management Studio), with little or no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents. Linux users are left to infer how to adapt the instructions, especially for backup file creation and local file path usage.
Recommendations
- Include Linux/macOS equivalents for file paths (e.g., /home/user/backup/test.bak) alongside Windows examples.
- Mention cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code, nano, vim) instead of or in addition to Notepad/OneNote for copying SAS tokens.
- Explicitly state that SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is Windows-only and suggest Azure Data Studio or sqlcmd as cross-platform alternatives.
- Provide example backup commands for Linux-based SQL Server installations (e.g., using /var/opt/mssql/backup/ as the backup path).
- When referencing tools like Azure Storage Explorer or Visual Studio Code, clarify their cross-platform availability.
