Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server as the source platform, with all migration steps, examples, and tooling (e.g., Robocopy) tailored exclusively for Windows environments. There are no Linux or cross-platform examples, and the guide assumes Windows Server as the only supported or intended source, omitting any mention of Linux-based file servers or tools.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state early in the guide that the process is only supported for Windows Server sources, or provide equivalent guidance for Linux-based file servers if supported.
- If Linux is supported, include migration instructions and examples for Linux environments, such as using rsync or other Linux-native tools to copy data to Data Box SMB shares.
- Mention Linux compatibility (or lack thereof) for Azure File Sync and Data Box, and provide links to relevant Linux migration guides if available.
- Where file copy tools are discussed (e.g., Robocopy), offer Linux alternatives or clarify that Robocopy is Windows-only.
- Consider restructuring the documentation to present platform-agnostic steps first, then provide platform-specific instructions for both Windows and Linux where applicable.
