Summary
The documentation presents Windows agent installation details before Linux, provides more granular information about Windows-specific artifacts (services, security groups, environment variables, log locations, and post-uninstall remnants), and references Windows-specific tools and concepts (MSI installer, Group Policy, NT SERVICE accounts). Linux installation details are present but less detailed, lacking parity in areas such as security group creation and post-uninstall artifact explanation. Windows terminology and paths are often listed first or exclusively, and troubleshooting/logging guidance is more extensive for Windows.
Recommendations
  • Present Windows and Linux installation details in parallel sections, or alternate which OS is described first to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Ensure Linux installation details include equivalent information to Windows, such as service accounts, security groups, environment variable configuration, and post-uninstall artifacts.
  • Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting and logging guidance at the same level of detail as Windows.
  • Avoid Windows-centric terminology (e.g., Group Policy, NT SERVICE) without Linux equivalents or explanations.
  • List both Windows and Linux paths and examples together, rather than Windows first.
  • Add explicit notes or tables comparing Windows and Linux behaviors, especially where they differ.
