Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: all command-line examples for monitoring and managing migration use PowerShell, with no mention or examples for Linux CLI (such as Azure CLI or Bash). Windows terminology and tools (e.g., Windows PowerShell, SetupDiag, Windows Server OS upgrade) are referenced exclusively or before Linux equivalents. There are no Linux-specific instructions or parity in troubleshooting, monitoring, or automation steps. While Linux is mentioned in passing (e.g., VM agent installation), actionable guidance and examples are Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) or Bash examples for all PowerShell commands, especially for monitoring migration status and troubleshooting.
  • Explicitly state that all migration and monitoring steps can be performed from Linux/macOS environments, and provide instructions for doing so.
  • When referencing tools like SetupDiag or OS upgrades, clarify Linux alternatives or note when steps are Windows-specific.
  • Ensure troubleshooting and post-migration steps include Linux-specific guidance (e.g., activation, agent installation, post-migration validation).
  • Where possible, present cross-platform instructions together, or alternate the order in which Windows and Linux steps are presented.
  • Add notes or links to Linux documentation for any referenced tools or processes that are Windows-only.
