Summary
The documentation exhibits a notable Windows bias. PowerShell is the primary automation example, with extensive PowerShell cmdlets and scripts provided, and explicit instructions for installing PowerShell 7. Windows-specific backup management tools (MARS, MABS, DPM) are referenced throughout, with GUI instructions for their consoles. The ARMClient tool is suggested for advanced deletion, but its installation is described only via Chocolatey (a Windows package manager), and usage examples are Windows-centric. The Azure CLI section is brief, limited in scope, and notes that CLI support is incomplete. There are no Bash, Linux-native, or macOS-specific examples or guidance for users who do not use Windows or PowerShell.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Bash/Azure CLI scripts for all major operations, especially for deleting backup items and vaults.
- Clarify how to perform all steps on Linux/macOS, including how to install and use ARMClient on those platforms (e.g., via .NET Core or as a cross-platform tool).
- Mention and prioritize cross-platform tools (like Azure CLI) before Windows-specific tools, or at least present them in parallel.
- Add guidance for managing Recovery Services vaults using the Azure Portal and Azure CLI for all supported backup types, not just Azure VMs.
- Where PowerShell is used, clarify that PowerShell Core (v7+) is cross-platform, and provide installation instructions for Linux/macOS.
- If certain features are Windows-only (e.g., MARS, MABS, DPM), clearly state this and suggest alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
