Summary
The documentation exclusively references the Windows Azure Import/Export Tool (WAImportExport.exe), provides only Windows-style command-line examples (e.g., C:\ paths, .exe extension), and uses Windows-centric terminology (e.g., BitLocker, drive letters). There are no Linux equivalents, examples, or mentions of cross-platform support, which may exclude or confuse users on Linux or macOS systems.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state whether the Azure Import/Export Tool is available for Linux/macOS, and if not, provide guidance or alternatives for non-Windows users.
  • If a Linux version or cross-platform tool exists, provide equivalent Linux command-line examples (e.g., using /mnt or ~/ paths, and appropriate executable names).
  • Mention Linux-compatible encryption/decryption tools if BitLocker is referenced (e.g., dislocker or cryptsetup).
  • Avoid using only Windows drive letters and backslashes in file paths; provide POSIX-style examples as well.
  • Clarify any platform limitations early in the documentation, so users know if they need to use a Windows environment or VM.
