Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All instructions, examples, and credential requirements are specific to Windows guest OS, with explicit statements that Linux guest OS restore is not supported except for manual VMDK attachment and file copy. No Linux-specific guidance, examples, or parity features are provided.
Recommendations
- Add support for automated guest file restore operations on Linux VMs, or provide clear, step-by-step instructions for manual file restoration from attached VMDKs on Linux.
- Include Linux-specific examples and workflows where possible, such as mounting VMDKs and copying files using Linux tools.
- Clarify any limitations and offer alternative solutions for Linux users, such as using guest file restore via proxy VMs with Linux OS.
- Document credential requirements and restore procedures for Linux environments, if/when supported.
