Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: all command-line examples for monitoring and managing migration are provided exclusively in PowerShell, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native alternatives. The instructions and notes repeatedly reference running commands on Windows or Windows PowerShell, and tools like SetupDiag (Windows-specific) are discussed without Linux equivalents. Windows-specific upgrade and troubleshooting steps are highlighted, while Linux migration scenarios and commands are not addressed. This creates an impression that the process is primarily designed for Windows users, with Linux support being secondary or assumed but not documented.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) or Bash command examples for all PowerShell commands, especially for monitoring migration status, so Linux and cross-platform users are equally supported.
- Explicitly state that all migration and monitoring steps can be performed from Linux/macOS using Azure CLI or Cloud Shell (Bash), and provide instructions or links.
- When referencing tools like SetupDiag (Windows-only), add notes about how to troubleshoot or handle similar scenarios for Linux VMs, or link to relevant Linux documentation.
- Include Linux-specific migration considerations, such as OS upgrade options, agent installation, and post-migration troubleshooting, to ensure parity with the detailed Windows guidance.
- Review all screenshots and UI instructions to ensure they are not Windows-centric, and add Linux-relevant visuals or clarifications where appropriate.
