Summary
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is mentioned as the only method for configuring disaster recovery for VMs in scale sets, with no equivalent Linux CLI or Bash example provided. Windows-specific tools like RoboCopy are recommended for SMB file replication, while the Linux alternative (rsync) is only mentioned for NFS scenarios. There is a section specifically referencing 'SAP system running on Windows with Azure shared disk', but no parallel guidance for Linux-based SAP systems. Overall, Windows tools and patterns are mentioned first or exclusively in several places, and Linux-native approaches are underrepresented.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI and/or Bash script examples for all PowerShell-only instructions, especially for configuring disaster recovery for VMs in scale sets.
  • When recommending file replication tools, mention both Windows (RoboCopy) and Linux (rsync) options for all relevant storage types (e.g., SMB as well as NFS).
  • Include explicit guidance and examples for SAP systems running on Linux, especially in sections that currently reference only Windows scenarios (e.g., Azure shared disk).
  • Ensure that Linux-native tools and patterns are presented alongside or before Windows equivalents to avoid the appearance of Windows-first bias.
  • Add a table or section summarizing DR strategies for both Windows and Linux SAP workloads, highlighting any differences and providing parity in documentation.
