Summary
The documentation page exhibits several signs of Windows bias. Many workarounds and operational instructions reference Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, RDP, Windows services, Explorer, robocopy) and provide examples or steps for Windows environments first or exclusively. Linux equivalents are often missing, especially for tasks like restarting nodepool VMs, mounting NFS shares, and collecting logs. In some cases, Linux is mentioned only as an alternative or after the Windows instructions, and there is a lack of parity in example commands and troubleshooting steps.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, especially for common operational tasks (e.g., restarting nodepool VMs, mounting NFS shares, collecting logs).
- Include Linux command-line equivalents (e.g., SSH, systemctl, cp, rsync) wherever Windows tools like PowerShell, Explorer, or robocopy are referenced.
- Ensure troubleshooting steps and workarounds are documented for both Windows and Linux environments, not just Windows.
- When giving example commands (e.g., sqlcmd, mounting NFS), show both Windows and Linux syntax.
- Avoid assuming users have access to Windows-only interfaces; clarify cross-platform access methods.
- Review documentation for sections where only Windows VM issues are discussed and add Linux VM considerations where relevant.
