Summary:
The documentation exclusively describes recovery using Azure Backup Server and Data Protection Manager (DPM), which are Windows-only tools. All instructions, screenshots, and terminology are specific to the Windows ecosystem, with no mention of Linux-based recovery workflows, tools, or examples. There is no guidance for Linux administrators or parity in cross-platform scenarios.
Recommendations:
- Include information on how Linux workloads can be protected and recovered using Azure Backup, if supported.
- If Linux recovery is not supported via Azure Backup Server/DPM, clearly state this limitation early in the documentation.
- Provide links or references to Linux-specific backup and recovery documentation within Azure Backup, such as for Azure Backup for Linux VMs or file recovery from Linux machines.
- Add a comparison table or section outlining platform support and differences in recovery workflows between Windows and Linux.
- If any command-line or scripting examples are included, provide both PowerShell (Windows) and Bash (Linux) equivalents where applicable.
