Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias: all detailed examples, supported workloads, and recovery scenarios focus on Windows operating systems and applications. Linux is only mentioned as a VM guest, with no native or agent-based Linux backup support or examples. Windows-specific tools and filesystems (e.g., NTFS, VSS, ReFS) are referenced throughout, while Linux filesystems and backup scenarios are omitted.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit examples and documentation for protecting native Linux workloads, not just Linux VMs running on Windows hosts.
- Include details about supported Linux filesystems (e.g., ext4, xfs, btrfs) and any limitations or requirements.
- Add parity in recovery scenarios for Linux (e.g., item-level/file-level recovery, not just entire VM restore).
- Mention Linux backup agents or integration options if available, or clarify their absence.
- List Linux-specific data protection issues and unsupported data types, similar to the Windows section.
- Ensure Linux is not always listed last or as an afterthought; integrate Linux scenarios alongside Windows where applicable.
