Summary
The documentation exclusively references Windows Server as the supported OS, uses Windows-specific tools (Robocopy), and provides no Linux or cross-platform alternatives or examples. All instructions and terminology assume a Windows environment, with no mention of Linux compatibility or equivalent procedures.
Recommendations
  • Clarify early in the documentation whether Azure File Sync supports only Windows Server, or if Linux is supported/planned.
  • If Linux support exists or is planned, provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux environments, including alternative tools (e.g., rsync instead of Robocopy).
  • If only Windows is supported, explicitly state this at the beginning to set user expectations and avoid confusion.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform terminology and tools, or at least mention Linux alternatives for common tasks (such as file copying and permissions management).
