Summary:
The documentation assumes the recovery process is performed exclusively on Windows Server or Azure VMs running Windows. All instructions reference Windows-specific tools (e.g., Robocopy), and there are no examples or guidance for performing the same tasks on Linux servers. The agent installation and registration steps are also linked specifically to Windows Server documentation, with no mention of Linux compatibility or alternatives.
Recommendations:
- Explicitly state whether Azure File Sync is supported on Linux, and if not, clarify this early in the documentation.
- If Linux is supported, provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux environments, including alternative tools (e.g., rsync instead of Robocopy) and Linux-specific agent installation steps.
- If only Windows is supported, add a clear note at the beginning of the article to inform users.
- Where possible, use cross-platform terminology and provide parity in examples for both Windows and Linux users.
