Summary
The documentation is focused on creating and managing SMB volumes for Azure NetApp Files, which is inherently a Windows-centric protocol. However, the sections on managing permissions and share properties exclusively reference Windows tools (MMC, Windows SMB client) and do not mention or provide guidance for Linux or macOS clients, which can also access SMB shares. There are no examples or instructions for mounting or managing SMB volumes from non-Windows systems.
Recommendations
  • Add a section or examples showing how to mount and access the SMB volume from Linux and macOS clients (e.g., using the 'mount -t cifs' command on Linux, or Finder on macOS).
  • Include instructions or references for managing SMB permissions from Linux (e.g., using 'smbclient', 'setfacl', or other Samba tools where applicable).
  • Clarify which management tasks must be performed from Windows and which can be performed from other platforms, to set user expectations.
  • Link to the 'Mount a volume for Windows or Linux virtual machines' article earlier in the workflow, especially in the 'Control access' section.
