Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-specific naming conventions (e.g., 'con' as an invalid directory name), and by omitting Linux-specific troubleshooting steps, tools, or examples. The guidance for RBAC role assignment mentions PowerShell and APIs before other methods, and troubleshooting steps do not reference Linux tools or commands (such as shell commands for connectivity or permissions). The documentation also refers to SMB and file shares in a manner more familiar to Windows environments, without acknowledging NFS or Linux file system patterns.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and examples, such as using shell commands (e.g., 'ls', 'mount', 'chmod', 'curl', 'openssl') for connectivity and permissions.
  • Mention Linux equivalents for RBAC role assignment (e.g., Azure CLI commands) alongside or before PowerShell.
  • Clarify that invalid directory names like 'con' are a Windows-specific restriction and provide Linux-specific naming guidance.
  • Reference Linux file sharing protocols (e.g., NFS) and their troubleshooting where relevant.
  • Provide examples of error investigation using Linux tools (e.g., checking logs, using 'systemctl' for agent status, etc.).
  • Ensure that all instructions and troubleshooting steps are platform-agnostic or offer parity between Windows and Linux environments.
