Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias by referencing Azure PowerShell as the primary example for moving data to the Archive tier, without providing equivalent CLI or Linux/macOS instructions. PowerShell is mentioned before the more cross-platform Lifecycle Management policy method. No Linux-specific tools or commands (such as Azure CLI or Bash scripts) are given, and there are no explicit Linux/macOS examples for interacting with the Data Box Gateway or Azure Storage.
Recommendations
- Provide Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for all operations, especially for setting blob tiers.
- Explicitly mention that both NFS and SMB protocols are supported on Linux/macOS and provide sample commands for each platform.
- Include Bash script examples for common tasks, such as moving blobs between tiers.
- Clarify that Lifecycle Management policies are platform-agnostic and show how to configure them via the Azure portal or CLI.
- Add a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences or considerations.
