Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. It exclusively references Windows Server concepts (e.g., NTFS, Windows Server data deduplication, Event Viewer), uses Windows-specific terminology (e.g., reparse points, FILE_ATTRIBUTE_RECALL_ON_DATA_ACCESS), and provides operational examples only for Windows (such as the PowerShell cmdlet Invoke-StorageSyncFileRecall). There are no Linux equivalents, examples, or mentions of cross-platform support, and the documentation assumes the reader is operating in a Windows environment.
Recommendations:
- Clarify early in the documentation whether Azure File Sync and cloud tiering are supported on Linux, and if not, state this explicitly.
- If Linux support exists, provide equivalent examples for Linux environments, including command-line operations, file attribute handling, and monitoring/logging instructions.
- Reference Linux file systems (e.g., ext4, XFS) and their handling of file metadata and access times, if applicable.
- Include Linux-native tools or commands for checking file status, disk space, and event logs.
- Avoid assuming NTFS or Windows-specific features (such as reparse points or Event Viewer) are universally available; provide cross-platform alternatives or note limitations.
- If PowerShell cmdlets are mentioned, provide equivalent shell or scripting examples for Linux (e.g., Bash).
