Summary:
The documentation is exclusively focused on Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC) for SAP ASCS/SCS high availability in Azure, with all examples, architectures, and tooling (e.g., SIOS DataKeeper, Windows Scale-Out File Server, WSFC) being Windows-specific. There are no references to Linux-based clustering solutions, nor any examples or guidance for Linux environments, despite SAP being widely deployed on Linux. The document assumes a Windows-only context throughout.
Recommendations:
- Include a parallel section or separate documentation for clustering SAP ASCS/SCS on Linux in Azure, covering Pacemaker/Corosync or SUSE HAE/Red Hat HA solutions.
- Provide Linux-specific examples for shared disk configuration, fencing, and load balancer integration in Azure.
- Mention Linux support and alternatives wherever Windows tools or patterns (e.g., WSFC, SIOS DataKeeper, Windows Scale-Out File Server) are discussed.
- Add a comparison table or guidance on choosing between Windows and Linux clustering approaches for SAP on Azure.
- Ensure that prerequisites and supported OS versions mention Linux distributions and their requirements for SAP clustering.
