Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias. PowerShell is the primary automation method described, with extensive PowerShell script and cmdlet examples, and explicit instructions to install PowerShell 7. Windows-specific tools (MARS, MABS, DPM management consoles) are referenced throughout, with no mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform alternatives for on-premises backup management. The ARMClient tool is installed via Chocolatey (Windows-only), and all screenshots and UI references are Windows-centric. The CLI section is brief, limited in scope, and does not provide parity with PowerShell capabilities, nor does it address Linux scenarios for on-premises backup servers.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash and Azure CLI examples for all major steps, especially for deleting vaults and backup items.
  • Clarify which steps and tools are cross-platform, and explicitly document Linux/macOS workflows for on-premises backup management.
  • Include instructions for installing and running ARMClient on Linux/macOS (e.g., via .NET Core or manual download).
  • Reference Linux-compatible backup agents or clarify platform limitations for MARS, MABS, and DPM.
  • Balance example order: present CLI/Bash examples before or alongside PowerShell, and avoid assuming Windows as the default environment.
  • Add notes or links for Linux users where Windows-only tools are mentioned.
