Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias in several ways: Windows instructions and links are consistently listed before Linux equivalents (e.g., disk initialization), and the only provided automation script for cleaning up stale Site Recovery configurations is a PowerShell (.ps1) script, with no mention of a Linux/bash alternative. This leaves Linux users without parity for key troubleshooting steps and automation.
Recommendations
- Present Windows and Linux instructions side-by-side, or alternate which is listed first to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Provide equivalent bash or Azure CLI scripts for Linux users, especially for tasks currently covered only by PowerShell scripts.
- Explicitly mention Linux troubleshooting steps wherever automation or scripting is referenced, and link to Linux-specific resources.
- Clarify whether provided scripts (e.g., Cleanup-Stale-ASR-Config-Azure-VM.ps1) can be run from Azure Cloud Shell (which supports both bash and PowerShell), and offer guidance for Linux users.
- Audit all troubleshooting steps to ensure Linux users have clear, actionable instructions matching those for Windows.
