Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates subtle Windows bias. When describing how to query the Last Sync Time property, it lists Azure PowerShell before Azure CLI and client libraries, which are more cross-platform. There are no explicit Linux or macOS-specific examples or guidance, and no mention of Linux-specific tools or mounting patterns (such as using the NFS protocol or Linux mount commands). The documentation assumes a general audience but implicitly prioritizes Windows/PowerShell workflows and omits parity Linux guidance.
Recommendations:
- When listing tools or commands, mention Azure CLI before or alongside Azure PowerShell, as CLI is cross-platform and more familiar to Linux users.
- Provide explicit Linux examples for common operations, such as mounting Azure Files shares using NFS or SMB on Linux, and querying properties using Bash/CLI.
- Include references to Linux tools and workflows (e.g., mount.cifs, mount.nfs, or relevant Linux client libraries) where appropriate.
- Add a section or callout for Linux administrators, highlighting any differences or considerations unique to Linux environments.
- Ensure parity in troubleshooting and failover instructions for both Windows and Linux clients.
