Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux troubleshooting steps for Hybrid Runbook Workers, but there is a noticeable Windows bias. Windows examples, tools, and registry paths are often presented first or in greater detail. Several scenarios (e.g., registry edits, event log checks, PowerShell scripts) are Windows-specific, with Linux equivalents either less detailed or missing. PowerShell and Windows event log troubleshooting are emphasized, while Linux log and troubleshooting methods are less thoroughly covered.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of Windows and Linux instructions so that Linux is presented first in some sections.
  • Ensure Linux troubleshooting steps are as detailed as Windows, including equivalent commands for log collection, service status, and error investigation.
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows-specific tools and scripts (e.g., PowerShell scripts, registry edits, event log checks).
  • Where Windows registry or event log locations are mentioned, include corresponding Linux configuration or log file locations, or explicitly state if not applicable.
  • For each scenario that is Windows-only, clarify if there is no Linux equivalent or provide a comparable Linux troubleshooting path.
  • Balance the use of PowerShell examples with Bash or Python examples for Linux.
  • Review the language to avoid implying Windows is the default or primary platform.
