Summary
The documentation exclusively references SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), a Windows-only tool, and the SQL Server Agent, which is also Windows-centric. All migration steps and screenshots are based on SSMS, with no mention of Linux-compatible tools, command-line alternatives, or cross-platform approaches. There are no examples or guidance for users on Linux or macOS platforms, nor is Azure Data Studio (which is cross-platform) discussed as an alternative.
Recommendations
  • Provide guidance or alternatives for Linux and macOS users, such as using Azure Data Studio (if supported) or relevant command-line tools (e.g., sqlcmd, Azure CLI, PowerShell Core).
  • Explicitly state the Windows-only nature of the SSMS-based migration wizard and suggest any cross-platform migration strategies if available.
  • Include examples or references for performing similar migrations using cross-platform tools or APIs, if possible.
  • If no Linux alternative exists, add a note to clarify this and point users to feature requests or roadmap items for Linux support.
