Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in the data copy section by listing Windows/SMB/Robocopy as the first and most detailed example, while Linux/NFS is mentioned only secondarily and with less detail. The use of Windows-specific tools (Robocopy) is highlighted, and there are no explicit Linux command-line examples (e.g., mounting SMB shares from Linux, or using Linux-native tools for SMB). There is also an implicit assumption of Windows environments in the share connection instructions (UNC paths), and no PowerShell or Linux shell parity is provided for all steps.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux examples for copying data to SMB shares, such as using the 'mount -t cifs' command or 'smbclient', alongside the Windows/Robocopy example.
- List Linux/NFS and Windows/SMB options in parallel, not with Windows first.
- Include Linux command-line examples for connecting to SMB shares and copying data, not just referencing 'cp' or 'rsync' for NFS.
- Clarify that both Windows and Linux hosts are supported for all relevant steps, and provide parity in instructions and troubleshooting.
- Where UNC paths are shown (\\<IP>\ShareName), also show the equivalent Linux mount or access syntax.
- If PowerShell or Windows-specific tools are mentioned, provide equivalent Bash/Linux shell commands where possible.
