Summary
The documentation presents Windows agent installation details before Linux, provides more granular information about Windows-specific tools (MSI installer, service accounts, security groups, Group Policy), and includes detailed Windows folder/service/account/environment/log tables. Linux coverage is present but less detailed, with fewer references to Linux-specific system administration patterns or troubleshooting. Windows tools and concepts (MSI, Group Policy, NT SERVICE accounts) are described, while Linux equivalents (systemd, package managers, user/group management) are less emphasized.
Recommendations
- Present Linux and Windows installation details in parallel or alternate order to avoid Windows-first bias.
- Expand Linux sections to include equivalent details: describe Linux service accounts, security groups, and package management patterns.
- Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting tips (e.g., SELinux/AppArmor, systemd journal logs, permissions issues) similar to the Group Policy advice for Windows.
- Reference Linux system administration tools (e.g., systemctl, journalctl, usermod/groupmod) where appropriate.
- Ensure parity in log file descriptions, uninstall artifacts, and environment variable configuration between platforms.
- Include links to Linux package repository documentation and best practices for agent upgrades/removal.
