Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All operational steps, tools, and examples (such as Task Scheduler, Event Viewer, and PowerShell cmdlets/scripts) are specific to Windows Server. There is no mention of Linux support, alternatives, or equivalent commands, and the workflow assumes the use of Windows-native tools and interfaces throughout.
Recommendations
  • Clearly state at the beginning whether Azure File Sync is supported only on Windows, or provide guidance for Linux users if support exists.
  • If Linux is supported, provide equivalent steps and examples for Linux environments, including how to perform sync status checks, initiate syncs, and handle errors using Linux tools or Azure CLI.
  • If only Windows is supported, explicitly mention this limitation to set user expectations and avoid confusion.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform Azure CLI examples instead of (or in addition to) PowerShell.
  • Reference or link to any Linux-compatible tools or scripts, or provide guidance for alternative workflows for non-Windows environments.
