Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-specific tools and workflows, such as Windows Admin Center, Windows Server Graphical Installer, and PowerShell, with limited or no equivalent Linux examples or tool references. Windows deployment methods are mentioned before Linux alternatives, and Linux-specific instructions or examples are missing in several key sections.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux deployment examples and workflows, such as using Bash scripts, systemd, or native Linux package managers (apt, yum, zypper) for agent installation and management.
- Include references to Linux configuration management tools (e.g., Chef, Puppet, SaltStack) alongside Ansible, and clarify their support for Azure Arc onboarding.
- Provide step-by-step instructions or links for deploying Azure Arc and Azure Monitor Agent on popular Linux distributions, including troubleshooting and prerequisites.
- Balance PowerShell examples with Bash or shell script equivalents, and ensure CLI instructions are cross-platform.
- Mention Linux graphical tools (if any) or clarify that certain graphical installers are Windows-only, suggesting alternatives for Linux users.
- Ensure that all sections referencing Windows-specific features (e.g., Windows Admin Center) also note Linux options or explicitly state platform limitations.
