Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias through frequent references to Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Windows VM Guest Agent, RDP, waappagent.exe), cmdlets, and examples. Instructions for VM management and troubleshooting are provided primarily for Windows environments, with PowerShell commands and Windows utilities mentioned without Linux equivalents. In several cases, workarounds and examples are given only for Windows (e.g., mounting NFS shares from Windows, managing Windows VM agents), while Linux-specific guidance is sparse or absent. Windows update and security fixes are highlighted as a major feature, and Windows tools (robocopy, Explorer) are suggested for file operations, with no mention of Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux examples and commands for VM management, log collection, and troubleshooting (e.g., bash commands, Linux utilities).
  • Include instructions for mounting NFS shares from Linux clients, not just Windows.
  • Mention Linux tools for file operations (e.g., rsync, cp) alongside Windows tools like robocopy and Explorer.
  • Balance the documentation by listing Linux updates/security fixes if relevant, not just Windows.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, add corresponding bash or shell script examples for Linux users.
  • Clarify which features or issues apply to both Windows and Linux environments, and call out any platform-specific differences.
