Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps and examples are almost exclusively presented using Windows tools (PowerShell, MMC snap-in, Command Prompt), and instructions assume access to a Windows environment (e.g., remote desktop, editing C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts). There are no Linux-specific commands, tools, or alternative workflows provided, even though Azure Migrate appliances can be deployed on Linux and many VMware admins use Linux systems. Linux equivalents for PowerShell commands, network tests, and file editing are missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all PowerShell and Command Prompt commands (e.g., use curl, nc, dig, or systemctl where appropriate).
  • Include troubleshooting steps using Linux tools (e.g., checking services with systemctl, editing /etc/hosts, testing connectivity with netcat or telnet).
  • Mention Linux-based Azure Migrate appliance deployment and management explicitly, and clarify which steps are OS-agnostic.
  • Re-order examples to present both Windows and Linux approaches side-by-side, or clearly indicate when a step is Windows-specific.
  • Avoid assuming remote desktop or MMC snap-in access; suggest SSH and Linux-native tools where applicable.
