Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows-first bias in several areas. Windows licensing and onboarding methods (Scheduled Task, Configuration Manager) are mentioned before Linux equivalents, and Windows-specific tools (SCVMM, SCOM, Windows Server Software Assurance) are referenced without Linux alternatives. Examples and onboarding instructions are tailored to Windows environments, with no explicit Linux onboarding or management workflow guidance. Although Linux support is acknowledged, practical Linux examples and parity in tooling are missing.
Recommendations
- Provide onboarding instructions for Linux servers, including agent installation via native Linux tools (systemd, cron, shell scripts) and package managers.
- Include Linux-specific examples and workflows for each core functionality (patching, configuration, reporting, security, scripting, software distribution).
- Mention Linux equivalents or alternatives to Windows tools (e.g., alternatives to Scheduled Task, Configuration Manager, SCVMM, SCOM) and clarify how Azure Arc integrates with common Linux management solutions.
- Ensure that examples and guidance are presented for both Windows and Linux environments, ideally side-by-side, to demonstrate parity.
- Highlight any limitations or differences in feature support between Windows and Linux, and provide guidance for Linux administrators transitioning from SCCM.
