Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows environments, specifically referencing Microsoft Azure Backup Server (MABS), which is a Windows-only tool. All instructions, UI references, and screenshots are based on the Windows GUI, with no mention of Linux-based SQL Server deployments, command-line alternatives, or cross-platform backup solutions. There are no Linux or PowerShell/CLI examples, and the documentation assumes the use of Windows-specific accounts and patterns (e.g., NTAuthority\System, MMC-style wizards).
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state that MABS is a Windows-only solution and clarify support for Linux-based SQL Server, if any.
- If Linux-based SQL Server on Azure Stack is supported, provide parallel instructions or references for Linux environments, including command-line (bash) or cross-platform tools.
- Include examples using Azure CLI, PowerShell, or REST API for backup and recovery operations, which can be used on both Windows and Linux.
- Mention any alternative backup solutions for Linux-based SQL Server (e.g., Azure Backup integration with Linux, or third-party tools) if MABS is not supported.
- Avoid assuming the presence of Windows-specific accounts (like NTAuthority\System) or GUI workflows; provide equivalent steps for Linux or clarify limitations.
