Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Several workarounds and instructions reference Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, RDP, Windows VM Guest Agent, waappagent.exe, WindowsAzureGuest.exe), and examples often use Windows paths or commands before or instead of Linux equivalents. Some troubleshooting steps and log collection instructions are only provided for Windows environments, with Linux alternatives missing or less emphasized. In some cases, Windows-specific issues and solutions are described in detail, while Linux scenarios are only briefly mentioned or omitted.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and workarounds alongside Windows instructions, especially for VM management, log collection, and troubleshooting.
  • Include Linux command-line equivalents (e.g., Bash, SSH, systemctl) where PowerShell or Windows tools are referenced.
  • When giving mount examples, show both Windows (e.g., Explorer, robocopy) and Linux (e.g., cp, rsync, mount) commands.
  • For issues involving VM guest agents or extensions, clarify the process for both Windows and Linux VMs, including relevant services and commands.
  • Ensure that documentation for device access, troubleshooting, and configuration is platform-neutral or provides parity between Windows and Linux environments.
