Summary
The documentation exclusively targets Windows Server environments, referencing only Windows Server OS, Windows-specific tools (Robocopy), and Windows-centric features (DFS-N). There are no examples, instructions, or alternatives for Linux or macOS users, and all steps assume a Windows platform.
Recommendations
- Clarify early in the documentation that Azure File Sync is only supported on Windows Server, if that is the case. If Linux/macOS support is planned or partial, add equivalent steps and tooling for those platforms.
- If Robocopy is recommended for file transfer, suggest Linux/macOS alternatives (e.g., rsync) or note platform limitations.
- For user cut-over, mention Linux-compatible methods (such as NFS exports, Samba, or other cross-platform file sharing solutions) if relevant.
- Explicitly state platform requirements and limitations at the top of the guide to set user expectations.
