Summary
The documentation is exclusively focused on installing and using the Microsoft Azure Recovery Services (MARS) agent for Windows environments. All instructions, prerequisites, and examples are tailored to Windows systems, with references to Windows-specific tools (e.g., .exe installers, Windows OS settings, Windows VMs). There is no mention of Linux support, alternatives, or equivalent backup solutions for non-Windows platforms. The documentation assumes the user is operating in a Windows environment throughout.
Recommendations
- Clearly state in the introduction and prerequisites whether the MARS agent is supported only on Windows, and if so, provide guidance or links for Linux users to appropriate Azure backup solutions (e.g., Azure Backup for Linux VMs, Azure CLI-based backup, or third-party tools).
- If Linux is supported, add equivalent Linux installation instructions, including commands, package names, and configuration steps.
- Include examples and screenshots for Linux environments where applicable, or explicitly mention the lack of Linux support and suggest alternatives.
- Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (e.g., .exe files, Windows OS settings) without clarifying platform applicability.
- Add a comparison table or section outlining backup options for both Windows and Linux, helping users choose the correct approach for their platform.
