Summary:
The documentation assumes SQL Server is running on Windows VMs and does not mention or provide examples for Linux-based SQL Server deployments. There is no discussion of Linux-specific considerations, tools, or commands, and the backup extension and registration workflows are described in a way that presumes a Windows environment. The absence of Linux parity is notable given that SQL Server is supported on Linux.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state whether the described procedures and Azure Backup support apply to SQL Server on Linux VMs as well as Windows VMs.
- If Linux is supported, add Linux-specific instructions for registering AG nodes, installing the workload backup extension, and handling failover scenarios.
- Include examples or notes about any differences in backup workflows, error codes, or limitations for SQL Server AGs on Linux.
- Mention any Linux-specific prerequisites, such as required packages, permissions, or service management commands.
- If Azure Backup does not support SQL Server AGs on Linux, clearly state this limitation early in the documentation.
