Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. It assumes the migration target is always a Windows Server, only provides instructions and examples for Windows (e.g., RoboCopy, Windows Server setup), and does not mention or provide alternatives for Linux-based systems or tools. There are no Linux/Unix migration examples, and all operational steps are Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Add a section or guidance for scenarios where the migration target is a Linux server or where Linux tools are preferred.
  • Provide equivalent Linux command-line examples (e.g., using rsync, cifs-utils, or Azure CLI on Linux) for copying data from NAS to Azure.
  • Mention and compare Linux-compatible tools (such as azcopy, rsync, or Azure Storage Mover CLI) alongside Windows tools like RoboCopy.
  • Clarify early in the document that Azure File Sync is only supported on Windows, but offer migration alternatives for Linux-based environments.
  • Include troubleshooting tips and best practices for Linux users migrating SMB/NFS shares to Azure File Shares.
