Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing the Azure Migrate appliance as being deployed on a Windows server, with no mention of Linux support or alternatives. There are no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or tools provided for assessment or appliance deployment, and Windows is the only platform discussed for the on-premises appliance.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state whether the Azure Migrate appliance supports Linux hosts, and provide instructions/examples for Linux deployments if supported.
  • Include Linux-specific preparation steps and troubleshooting guidance for physical servers running Linux.
  • Offer parity in examples and screenshots, showing both Windows and Linux server scenarios.
  • If the appliance is Windows-only, clarify this limitation early and suggest alternative approaches for Linux environments (such as agent-based discovery or third-party tools).
