Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias in the 'Test connectivity' section, where the use of the Windows-only 'psping' tool in Azure PowerShell is suggested as the alternative to redis-cli, without providing an equivalent Linux command or tool. The Windows tool is mentioned first and exclusively, and there is no example for Linux users on how to perform the same connectivity test. Other sections mention Linux (e.g., TCP settings), but do not provide parity in troubleshooting commands or tools.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all troubleshooting commands, such as using 'nc' (netcat), 'telnet', or 'nmap' for connectivity testing.
  • When suggesting tools, mention cross-platform options first or side-by-side, rather than Windows-only tools.
  • Add explicit Linux command examples for connectivity testing, e.g., 'nc <cachename> <port>' or 'telnet <cachename> <port>'.
  • Clarify which tools are platform-specific and offer alternatives for other platforms.
  • Review all troubleshooting steps to ensure Linux users have clear, actionable guidance matching Windows users.
