Summary
The documentation provides parity between NFS (Linux) and SMB (Windows) examples for provisioning dual-protocol volumes in AKS. However, the SMB section is heavily focused on Windows-specific patterns, such as using IIS pods, Windows nodeSelectors, and Windows container images. The verification steps for SMB use Windows commands (cmd.exe, dir) and do not mention Linux-based SMB pod scenarios. The SMB CSI driver installation explicitly enables Windows support, but does not discuss Linux SMB mounting. There are no examples of mounting SMB volumes in Linux pods, nor guidance for Linux users wishing to use SMB.
Recommendations
- Add examples for mounting SMB volumes in Linux pods, including sample YAML manifests and verification steps using Linux commands (e.g., df -h, ls).
- Clarify that SMB volumes can be mounted on both Windows and Linux worker nodes, and provide instructions for both scenarios.
- Include Linux container images in SMB pod examples, not just Windows IIS.
- Explicitly mention any limitations or requirements for SMB on Linux (e.g., supported distributions, mount options, troubleshooting).
- Ensure that verification steps for SMB include Linux shell commands alongside Windows commands.
