Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All instructions and examples use PowerShell, with explicit references to PowerShell 5.1 (built into Windows) and installation steps for PowerShell on Windows. There are no examples or guidance for running the Network Readiness Checker on Linux or macOS, nor any mention of cross-platform compatibility. File paths and output locations are Windows-specific (e.g., C:\Users\...), and Windows Update/WSUS is referenced as a prerequisite. No Linux equivalents or alternative instructions are provided.
Recommendations
- Clarify whether the Azure Stack Network Readiness Checker tool can run on Linux or macOS, and if so, provide installation and usage instructions for those platforms.
- If the tool is Windows-only, explicitly state this limitation early in the documentation.
- Provide Linux/macOS PowerShell installation instructions and examples if supported (e.g., using pwsh instead of Windows PowerShell).
- Include Linux/macOS file path examples for log and report locations.
- Mention Linux equivalents for network prerequisites (e.g., alternatives to WSUS, typical Linux NTP/DNS configuration).
- Add troubleshooting steps relevant to Linux/macOS environments if supported.
