Summary
The documentation exclusively describes upgrading the MARS agent on Windows environments, referencing Windows-specific tools (Remote Desktop, DPM Console), graphical wizards, and agent installers. There are no Linux examples, nor any mention of Linux-compatible procedures or tools. All instructions assume a Windows server context and Windows administrative patterns.
Recommendations
- Clarify in the introduction that the MARS agent is only supported on Windows, if that is the case. If Linux support exists or is planned, add equivalent instructions for Linux environments.
- If Linux support is not available, explicitly state this to avoid confusion for cross-platform administrators.
- Where possible, provide parity for Linux by referencing Azure Backup solutions or agents available for Linux, and link to their documentation.
- Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (e.g., Remote Desktop, DPM Console) without noting platform limitations.
- Add a section comparing Windows and Linux backup agent options in Azure, to help users choose the right solution for their OS.
