Summary
The documentation mentions Windows-specific tools (Volume Shadow Copy Service - VSS) before Linux equivalents (fsfreeze) when describing backup mechanisms. It references the VM Agent and snapshot extension with Windows-focused links, and does not provide Linux-specific links or examples. There are no Linux command-line or workflow examples, and Linux considerations are mentioned only in passing (e.g., pre/post scripts for Linux VM backups) without detail or parity.
Recommendations
  • Provide equal detail for Linux backup mechanisms, including links to Linux VM Agent and snapshot extension documentation.
  • Include Linux-specific examples or workflows, such as how crash-consistent backups interact with Linux filesystems and typical Linux workloads.
  • Mention Linux tools (e.g., fsfreeze) alongside Windows tools (VSS), and provide links to relevant Linux documentation.
  • Ensure that references to VM Agent and snapshot extension include both Windows and Linux versions.
  • Add troubleshooting or best practices sections for Linux users, similar to any Windows guidance.
