Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows environments, specifically referencing Windows Server, Active Directory, SQL Server, and Dynamics AX components that are Windows-only. All examples, prerequisites, and recovery steps assume a Windows-based deployment, with no mention of Linux-based alternatives or guidance for non-Windows environments. Tools and patterns (e.g., Azure Virtual Machine Readiness Assessment, Active Directory replication, SQL Server replication) are exclusively Windows-centric.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state that Dynamics AX is a Windows-only application, if that is the case, to clarify the scope for readers.
- If Linux-based deployments or components are possible (e.g., for supporting services), provide equivalent guidance or explicitly mention their (lack of) support.
- Add notes or sections addressing what steps, if any, are applicable for Linux VMs or mixed-OS environments, especially for networking, failover, and recovery plan configuration.
- Include examples or links for disaster recovery of Linux-based workloads with Azure Site Recovery, to provide parity and context for Linux administrators.
- Where Windows-specific tools or patterns are mentioned (e.g., Active Directory, SQL Server), suggest Linux-compatible alternatives if available, or clarify that only Windows is supported for these components.
