Summary
The documentation for the MARS agent is heavily Windows-centric. All backup and recovery scenarios, process descriptions, and technical details (such as VSS usage and USN change journal) refer exclusively to Windows systems and tools. There is no mention of Linux or macOS support, nor are there examples or instructions for non-Windows platforms. The documentation implicitly assumes the user is operating in a Windows environment.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state platform support at the beginning of the documentation (e.g., 'MARS agent is only available for Windows systems').
- If Linux/macOS support is planned or available via other Azure Backup agents, provide cross-references or links to those solutions.
- Include a comparison table of backup agents for different platforms, clarifying which scenarios are supported on Windows vs. Linux/macOS.
- If possible, add parity examples or alternative instructions for Linux/macOS users, or direct them to the appropriate tools (such as Azure Backup for Linux VMs).
