Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows update instructions and tools (e.g., Registry Editor, .msi installers, command prompt, Windows-specific paths) are presented first and in greater detail, with Linux instructions provided only for the mobility agent update and not for appliance components. Windows tools (Registry Editor, msiexec, MARSAgentInstaller) are referenced exclusively, and there is no mention of Linux equivalents or parity for appliance management or manual updates. The documentation assumes a Windows environment for appliance operations and troubleshooting.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific instructions for updating appliance components, including command-line examples and package management guidance (e.g., using rpm, deb, or shell scripts).
  • Mention Linux equivalents for Windows tools (e.g., alternatives to Registry Editor, locations for agent configuration, and update status checks).
  • Ensure that Linux examples are presented alongside Windows examples, not only for the mobility agent but also for appliance components and troubleshooting steps.
  • Clarify which steps are Windows-only and offer Linux alternatives where possible, especially for manual update and configuration operations.
  • Include troubleshooting and error resolution steps for Linux environments, not just Windows.
