Summary
The documentation exclusively provides a PowerShell script using Windows-specific modules (MSOnlineBackup, OBPolicy, etc.) and registry paths, with no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents or cross-platform alternatives. All instructions and examples are tailored for Windows environments, making it difficult or impossible for Linux/macOS users to automate backup policy management using this guide.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent scripting examples for Linux/macOS environments, such as Bash scripts or Python examples.
- Document whether the MARS agent and its policy management are supported on Linux/macOS, and if not, clearly state platform limitations.
- If cross-platform support is available, provide instructions for using native tools (e.g., cron, rsync, or Azure CLI) to manage backup policies on Linux/macOS.
- Include a section comparing Windows and Linux/macOS approaches, and link to relevant platform-specific documentation.
