Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation references Windows-specific tools (Volume Shadow Copy Service - VSS) before mentioning the Linux equivalent (fsfreeze), and provides links to Windows VM Agent and snapshot extension documentation only. There are no Linux-specific examples or links, and Linux is only mentioned in passing without further guidance or parity in documentation references.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equal prominence to Linux tools and processes (e.g., link to Linux VM Agent and snapshot extension documentation alongside Windows).
  • Include Linux-specific examples or scenarios, such as how crash-consistent backups interact with Linux filesystems or typical Linux workloads.
  • Mention Linux tools (like fsfreeze) before or alongside Windows tools (like VSS), not after.
  • Add links to relevant Linux documentation for VM Agent and snapshot extension, not just Windows.
  • Clarify any differences in backup behavior or requirements between Windows and Linux VMs.
