Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows-based SQL Server VMs, referencing Windows-specific extensions (AzureBackupWindowsWorkload, SqlIaaSExtension), service accounts (NT Service\AzureWLBackupPluginSvc), and patterns. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based SQL Server VMs, nor is there mention of Linux compatibility or alternative steps for non-Windows environments. The documentation implicitly assumes SQL Server is running on Windows, creating friction for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Explicitly state whether the documented process supports Linux-based SQL Server VMs, and if not, provide alternative guidance or links.
- Add sections or notes describing backup configuration for SQL Server on Linux VMs, including any differences in extensions, service accounts, or permissions.
- Include Linux-specific examples, screenshots, and troubleshooting steps where applicable.
- Clarify prerequisites and supported platforms early in the documentation.
