Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, with all examples, tools, and recovery procedures relying on Windows-specific utilities (e.g., mountvol.exe, diskshadow.exe, psexec.exe, PowerShell commands, Net Share, Windows Explorer, and references to drive letters and Windows file paths). There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or alternative instructions, and all backup and restore workflows assume the use of Windows Server and Windows-based tools.
Recommendations
- Add explicit statements clarifying that MABS is Windows-only, or, if partial Linux support exists (e.g., for SQL Server), provide Linux/macOS instructions for backup and restore operations.
- Where possible, offer cross-platform alternatives for database backup and restore (e.g., using sqlcmd, native SQL Server backup commands, or SMB shares from Linux).
- Include notes or links for users running SQL Server on Linux, describing how to adapt backup/restore procedures.
- Reorder examples so that platform-neutral or cross-platform methods (e.g., SQL Server native backup) are presented before Windows-specific workflows.
- Clearly indicate which steps/tools are Windows-only, and suggest alternatives or workarounds for non-Windows environments.
