Summary
The documentation page exhibits several instances of Windows bias. Windows tools and workflows (such as PowerShell, RDP, waappagent.exe, robocopy, Explorer, and Windows-specific VM extensions) are referenced and exemplified, often without Linux equivalents or with Windows instructions given first. Some workarounds and examples (e.g., mounting NFS shares, troubleshooting VM Guest Agent, custom script extension setup) are Windows-centric, and Linux alternatives are missing or less emphasized.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux instructions and examples wherever Windows tools or workflows are mentioned (e.g., show Linux commands for mounting NFS shares, managing VM agents, and troubleshooting).
  • Include Linux-specific tools and patterns (such as SSH, systemctl, Linux guest agent management, and file copy utilities like rsync or cp) alongside Windows tools.
  • Ensure parity in troubleshooting steps and workarounds for both Windows and Linux VMs, especially for extensions and agent issues.
  • When referencing PowerShell or Windows utilities, also mention or link to Linux alternatives in the same section.
  • Review all examples and ensure that Linux users are equally supported, with clear, step-by-step guidance.
