Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux coverage for SMB Multichannel, including a Linux mount example and supported distributions. However, Windows tools (robocopy, Diskspd) and PowerShell commands are used exclusively for performance testing, configuration verification, and feature registration, with no Linux equivalents or parity. Windows documentation is referenced more frequently and appears first in several sections. Linux users are left to infer how to perform equivalent tasks (e.g., performance testing, verifying multichannel connections, registering features) using their own tools.
Recommendations
- Include Linux equivalents for performance testing (e.g., fio, dd, or ioping) alongside Diskspd and robocopy examples.
- Provide Linux commands to verify SMB Multichannel status and configuration (e.g., using 'smbstatus', 'mount', or kernel logs).
- Offer Azure CLI or REST API examples for feature registration, not just PowerShell.
- Reference Linux documentation and troubleshooting guides in 'Next steps', not only Windows documentation.
- Present Windows and Linux instructions/examples in parallel tabs or sections for all major tasks.
