Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. SMB/Windows-centric scenarios are described in greater detail, with explicit mention of Windows-only features (e.g., SMB Continuous Availability, Transparent Failover) and Windows workloads (Citrix, FSLogix, MS SQL Server). Linux equivalents are either omitted, referenced only in passing, or not provided with comparable detail. For example, SQL Server on Linux is explicitly excluded from SMB CA support, and Boomi recommendations specify Windows for SMB and Linux for NFS, but only Windows SMB mounting is linked in 'Next steps'. There are no PowerShell-heavy examples, but Windows tools and patterns are mentioned before or instead of Linux ones in several places.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux examples and guidance for SMB scenarios, including any supported Linux SMB workloads and configuration steps.
- Clarify whether features like SMB Continuous Availability or Transparent Failover are available or planned for Linux clients, and document any limitations.
- Add links and references to Linux mounting guides for SMB volumes, not just NFS.
- Where Windows tools or patterns are mentioned, ensure Linux alternatives are described with equal prominence and detail.
- Explicitly state support boundaries for both Windows and Linux in all relevant sections, avoiding Windows-first phrasing.
