Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC) and related Windows technologies (SOFS, Storage Spaces Direct, SMB file shares, Active Directory ACLs). All examples, diagrams, and instructions are specific to Windows environments, with no mention of Linux-based clustering solutions or parity for Linux/macOS users. There are no Linux equivalents or alternative approaches described, and Windows terminology and tools are used exclusively throughout.
Recommendations
- Add a section or cross-reference for clustering SAP ASCS/SCS on Linux (e.g., using Pacemaker, SUSE HA, or Red Hat Cluster Suite) in Azure.
- Provide parity documentation for Linux-based SAP high availability setups, including supported file share and clustering technologies (NFS, GlusterFS, etc.).
- Include links to Linux-specific SAP HA guides (such as 'high-availability-guide-suse.md') in the 'Next steps' section.
- Clearly state in the introduction that the guide is Windows-specific and provide guidance for Linux users.
- Where possible, mention Linux alternatives to Windows features (e.g., NFS instead of SMB, Linux clustering tools instead of WSFC).
