Summary:
The documentation is exclusively focused on Windows Server, with all instructions, screenshots, and tools (such as the MARS agent) tailored for Windows environments. There are no references to Linux systems, no Linux command-line or tool equivalents, and no cross-platform guidance. The workflow, agent, and backup targets are all Windows-specific, and even the prerequisites and notes reinforce a Windows-only context.
Recommendations:
- If Azure Backup supports Linux system state or equivalent backups, add a parallel section or a separate article for Linux, including step-by-step instructions, screenshots, and supported tools.
- Where possible, mention cross-platform alternatives or clarify that the described method is Windows-only, and link to Linux backup documentation if available.
- Include a comparison table or FAQ addressing differences in backup support and tooling between Windows and Linux.
- If Linux is not supported for system state backup with Azure Backup, explicitly state this early in the article to set expectations for cross-platform users.
