Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways. Windows operating systems are listed first and in detail in readiness tables, with Linux relegated to a single row referencing an external list. The guest OS readiness section provides extensive specifics for various Windows versions, but Linux is treated generically. There are no Linux-specific examples, patterns, or troubleshooting guidance; most examples and recommendations are either Windows-centric or omit Linux details. The documentation also lacks parity in describing how to assess Linux VMs, especially regarding version discovery and readiness nuances.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and troubleshooting steps, especially for common distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, RHEL, SUSE).
  • List Linux operating systems and their readiness/support status in detail, similar to the Windows OS table.
  • Include guidance for discovering Linux kernel versions and handling edge cases (e.g., unsupported distros, custom kernels).
  • Ensure that Linux tools, patterns, and assessment nuances are described alongside Windows equivalents, not just referenced externally.
  • Add explicit instructions for Linux environments in all relevant sections, including appliance deployment, data collection, and performance analysis.
