Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments. All VM creation and disk attachment instructions reference Windows VMs only, with no mention of Linux alternatives. The installation steps, prerequisites, and examples (including PowerShell for SSRS configuration) are exclusively Windows-focused. There are no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or parity notes, despite Azure Backup Server supporting backup of Linux VMs. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., Windows Update, ReFS formatting, Windows Server gallery images) are referenced exclusively or before any Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions for deploying Azure Backup Server on supported Linux distributions, if applicable, or clarify if only Windows is supported.
- Provide Linux VM creation and disk attachment steps, or link to relevant Linux documentation.
- Include Linux-specific backup and restore examples, especially for application-consistent backups and pre/post script usage.
- Offer parity notes for Linux users regarding prerequisites, storage formatting, and SQL Server/SSRS configuration.
- If Azure Backup Server cannot be installed on Linux, state this clearly at the beginning of the document.
