Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows-first perspective, referencing Windows licensing, Windows Server Software Assurance, and Windows-centric onboarding (Scheduled Task, Configuration Manager) before Linux alternatives. While Linux support is mentioned as a benefit, concrete Linux-specific examples, onboarding steps, or tools are missing. Windows tools (SCCM, SCVMM, SCOM) are discussed in detail, whereas Linux equivalents or migration guidance for Linux-centric environments are not provided.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit onboarding instructions for Linux servers, including example commands for agent installation (e.g., shell scripts, systemd units) and mention of Linux-native scheduling tools (cron, systemd timers) instead of only Scheduled Task.
  • Provide Linux-specific examples for functionality such as patching, configuration, and reporting (e.g., how Azure Update Manager works with Ubuntu or RHEL, sample policies for Linux, daemon monitoring).
  • Include references to Linux management tools and migration paths from Linux-centric environments (e.g., Ansible, Chef, Puppet) and how Azure Arc integrates or replaces these.
  • Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are treated equally in examples, guidance, and tool references.
  • Clarify any limitations or differences in feature parity for Linux servers and provide guidance for addressing gaps.
