Summary
The documentation focuses exclusively on SCVMM (System Center Virtual Machine Manager), a Windows-centric virtualization management platform, and provides only generic Terraform examples without any OS-specific instructions. All user variables and examples assume Windows conventions (e.g., 'Administrator' username, domain/workgroup settings), and there are no Linux-specific examples, notes, or parity guidance. The documentation does not mention Linux VMs, Linux authentication patterns, or provide examples for managing Linux-based SCVMM VMs.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples for provisioning and managing Linux VMs via SCVMM, including sample variables.tf and main.tf files with Linux conventions (e.g., 'adminuser', SSH keys, etc.).
- Include notes or sections describing differences in VM provisioning for Linux vs. Windows, such as OS profile settings, authentication, and agent installation.
- Provide guidance on installing the Azure Arc agent on Linux VMs managed by SCVMM, including required credentials and steps.
- Ensure that documentation references both Windows and Linux VM management scenarios, and avoid using only Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'Administrator', 'domain', 'workgroup') in generic examples.
- Where possible, mention Linux equivalents or considerations alongside Windows-specific instructions, especially in prerequisites and best practices.
