Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows-based SQL Server VMs. It exclusively references the AzureBackupWindowsWorkload extension, NT Service accounts, and Windows-specific service accounts. There are no examples or instructions for SQL Server on Linux VMs, nor any mention of Linux-specific tools or differences. The documentation implicitly assumes SQL Server is running on Windows, and does not address Linux scenarios.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance for backing up SQL Server running on Linux-based Azure VMs, including any differences in supported features or required extensions.
- Mention and document any Linux-specific backup agents or extensions, or clarify if Azure Backup does not support SQL Server on Linux VMs.
- Include examples or callouts for Linux users, such as differences in service accounts, permissions, or extension installation.
- If Azure Backup does not support SQL Server on Linux, state this clearly at the beginning of the article.
- Ensure parity in documentation by providing Linux and Windows instructions side-by-side where applicable.
