Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias in several areas: Windows-specific tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer), PowerShell and Windows VM management commands are provided without Linux equivalents, and Windows-centric troubleshooting steps are described in detail while Linux alternatives are missing or less emphasized. Examples and workarounds often reference Windows tools or workflows first or exclusively, with limited mention of Linux commands or utilities.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows-specific commands and tools (e.g., show how to use rsync or cp instead of robocopy/Explorer for blob copying).
  • Include PowerShell and Bash/Linux CLI examples side-by-side for device management and troubleshooting.
  • When describing VM guest agent issues, add instructions for Linux VMs (e.g., managing waagent).
  • Ensure that examples and workarounds mention both Windows and Linux options, or explicitly state platform applicability.
  • Review all command-line examples and add Linux alternatives where only Windows commands are shown.
