Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: PowerShell is the only CLI method described for manual setup, with no Linux shell or cross-platform alternatives. Registry and group policy checks are exclusively Windows-centric, and all troubleshooting steps reference Windows tools and patterns. The order of presentation and examples assume a Windows environment, with Linux only mentioned as a target OS for credentials, not for appliance setup or management.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform CLI instructions for appliance setup, not just PowerShell.
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and configuration checks (e.g., systemd, SELinux, firewall, time sync) alongside Windows registry/group policy checks.
  • Explicitly state OS requirements and clarify if the appliance can be deployed on Linux-based VMs or only Windows.
  • Offer parity in examples and screenshots for Linux environments, not just Windows.
  • If PowerShell is required, explain why and offer alternatives or workarounds for Linux administrators.
