Summary:
The documentation is exclusively focused on backing up Windows Server system state using Azure Backup. All instructions, screenshots, and tools (such as the Microsoft Azure Recovery Services (MARS) Agent) are Windows-specific. There are no references to Linux systems, Linux backup tools, or cross-platform alternatives. The workflow, terminology, and examples are tailored entirely to Windows environments, with no mention of how to achieve similar outcomes on Linux or other operating systems.
Recommendations:
- Add a section or a separate article explaining how to back up Linux system state or equivalent using Azure Backup, if supported.
- Include Linux-specific tools, commands, and examples (e.g., using Azure CLI, shell scripts, or Linux backup agents).
- If Azure Backup does not support Linux system state backup, clearly state this limitation at the beginning of the article and provide links to alternative solutions for Linux.
- Ensure parity in documentation structure and detail for both Windows and Linux backup scenarios, including screenshots, step-by-step guides, and troubleshooting tips.
- Avoid using Windows terminology (e.g., 'System State', 'MARSAgentInstaller.exe') exclusively; provide Linux equivalents or clarify OS-specific concepts.
