Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, specifically using Data Protection Manager (DPM), which is a Windows-only tool. All instructions, screenshots, and workflows assume the use of Windows Server, Windows-based SQL Server, and Windows authentication patterns (e.g., NTAuthority\System). There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based SQL Server deployments, nor are any Linux tools or commands mentioned.
Recommendations
  • Add a section or parallel guide for backing up SQL Server on Linux to Azure, using supported tools (e.g., Azure Backup integration with Linux, or native SQL Server backup to Azure Blob Storage).
  • Explicitly state that DPM is a Windows-only solution and provide links or references to Linux-compatible backup solutions for SQL Server.
  • Include examples, prerequisites, and screenshots for Linux environments where possible, or clarify the scope of the article as Windows-only at the outset.
  • Mention alternative backup and recovery workflows for SQL Server on Linux, such as using sqlcmd, bash scripts, or Azure CLI.
  • If Azure Backup supports Linux SQL Server workloads, provide step-by-step instructions for those scenarios.
