Summary
The documentation consistently assumes the SQL Server is running on a Windows-based Azure VM, with all examples referencing SQL Server and Windows-style resource/container naming. There are no examples or guidance for restoring databases on Linux-based SQL Server VMs, nor any mention of Linux-specific considerations, tools, or file paths (except a single instance of a Unix-style path in a restore-as-files example). The documentation does not clarify whether the CLI commands and restore procedures are equally applicable to Linux SQL Server VMs, and does not provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state whether the documented CLI restore process applies to both Windows and Linux SQL Server VMs.
- Add examples and guidance for restoring SQL Server databases on Linux-based Azure VMs, including any differences in resource/container naming, file paths, or prerequisites.
- Include Linux-specific notes, such as required permissions, service management, and file system considerations.
- Where file paths are referenced, clarify OS-specific conventions and provide both Windows and Linux examples.
- If there are limitations or differences for Linux SQL Server VMs, document them clearly.
