Summary
The documentation focuses exclusively on SQL Server AG backups within Azure VMs, with no mention of Linux-based SQL Server deployments or examples. All instructions implicitly assume Windows environments, as SQL Server AG is traditionally Windows-centric, but recent versions support Linux. There are no references to Linux tools, commands, or considerations, nor is there guidance for Linux users attempting similar tasks.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state OS requirements and limitations (e.g., if AG backup is Windows-only, clarify this early).
- If Linux-based SQL Server AGs are supported, add dedicated sections or examples for Linux environments, including any differences in backup configuration, node registration, and failover handling.
- Mention any Azure Backup limitations for Linux SQL Server AGs, or provide alternative backup strategies for Linux users.
- Include references to Linux tools (such as systemd, shell commands) where relevant, and clarify any differences in workload backup extension installation or operation on Linux.
- Add troubleshooting notes for Linux users, if applicable.
