Summary
The documentation page exhibits several signs of Windows bias. Many troubleshooting scenarios and examples focus on Hyper-V (a Windows-centric virtualization platform) and Windows servers, with repeated references to Windows-specific features such as dynamic memory. Licensing cost calculations are only described for Windows servers, with Linux explicitly excluded. In the 'Capture network traffic' section, instructions are tailored to Microsoft browsers (Edge, Internet Explorer) and Chrome, with no mention of Linux-native tools or browsers (e.g., Firefox, curl, tcpdump, Wireshark). There are no Linux-specific troubleshooting examples, nor are Linux tools or patterns mentioned. The documentation generally assumes a Windows-first environment and omits Linux parity in examples and tool recommendations.
Recommendations
  • Include troubleshooting examples and guidance for Linux environments, such as KVM, Xen, or other Linux-based hypervisors.
  • Add instructions for capturing network traffic using Linux-native tools (e.g., tcpdump, Wireshark, Firefox Developer Tools) and provide export steps for these tools.
  • Clarify how licensing costs are handled for Linux servers and update the documentation to reflect parity or explain the rationale for any differences.
  • Balance references to Hyper-V and Windows with equivalent Linux scenarios, such as troubleshooting performance data collection on Linux VMs.
  • Where browser-based instructions are given, include steps for Firefox and other browsers commonly used on Linux.
  • Explicitly mention Linux support and limitations in relevant sections, and provide links to Linux-specific documentation where available.
