Summary
The documentation provides step-by-step instructions for migrating a SQL Server database to Azure Arc-enabled SQL Managed Instance, but several examples and instructions assume a Windows environment. For example, backup file paths and kubectl cp examples use Windows-style paths (e.g., C:\Backupfiles\test.bak) without providing Linux/macOS equivalents. Tools like SSMS are mentioned without Linux alternatives, and Visual Studio Code is referenced, which is cross-platform, but no explicit Linux/macOS instructions or screenshots are provided. This may cause friction for users on Linux or macOS.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent examples using Linux/macOS file paths (e.g., /home/user/backup/test.bak) alongside Windows paths.
- Mention and provide examples using cross-platform or Linux-native tools for backup (e.g., sqlcmd, Azure Data Studio) where possible.
- Clarify that Visual Studio Code is cross-platform and provide any Linux/macOS-specific steps if needed.
- When referencing SSMS (which is Windows-only), suggest Azure Data Studio as an alternative for Linux/macOS users.
- For kubectl cp commands, show both Windows and Linux/macOS source path examples.
