Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All examples, tools, and troubleshooting steps reference Windows environments, utilities, and protocols (e.g., MMC, Active Directory Users and Computers, Windows Server DFS, Windows clock sync, Windows Update). There are no Linux or cross-platform examples, nor is there mention of how to interact with Azure NetApp Files SMB shares from Linux clients (e.g., using smbclient, mount.cifs, or Samba). The documentation assumes the reader is using Windows or Windows Server, omitting guidance for Linux administrators.
Recommendations:
- Add examples and troubleshooting steps for accessing Azure NetApp Files SMB shares from Linux clients (e.g., using smbclient, mount.cifs, or gvfs).
- Include Linux equivalents for Windows tools mentioned (e.g., how to view share/session/open files using smbstatus or similar).
- When discussing Active Directory integration, mention how to join Linux clients to AD domains and access SMB shares securely.
- Provide parity in configuration and troubleshooting guidance for both Windows and Linux environments.
- Avoid assuming the administrator is always using Windows; clarify when a step is Windows-specific and offer alternatives for other platforms.
- Reference relevant Linux documentation or man pages where appropriate.
