Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows Server VMs as the default/basis for the ID Broker node, focusing on Microsoft Entra Domain Services (which is tightly integrated with Windows AD), and omitting explicit Linux-based administrative or authentication examples. Tooling and authentication flows are described in a Windows-centric context, and there are no Linux-specific instructions or parity in examples (e.g., no Linux SSH setup, no Linux-native tools mentioned).
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux-based examples for cluster administration, authentication, and SSH access (e.g., using Linux SSH clients, kinit, and keytab management on Linux).
- Mention Linux-compatible tools for development and administration, such as Linux command-line utilities, and clarify that the authentication flows are cross-platform where applicable.
- Include instructions or notes on how to configure and use the HDInsight ID Broker node if the cluster is running on Linux-based VMs, or clarify if this is not supported.
- Balance references to Windows Server with equivalent Linux VM options, or state platform requirements clearly.
- Provide parity in troubleshooting and operational guidance for both Windows and Linux environments.
