Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing PowerShell-based automation scripts and examples, referencing Windows-specific tools such as Task Scheduler, and omitting equivalent Linux automation examples (e.g., Bash scripts, cron usage). Windows terminology and patterns (local administrator group, Task Scheduler) are mentioned before or instead of Linux equivalents, and Linux-specific instructions are minimal and relegated to notes.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/Bash script examples for Arc agent installation and automation, including how to run the helper script from a Linux shell.
  • Include instructions for scheduling automated agent installation on Linux using cron, with sample crontab entries.
  • Mention Linux equivalents for administrative privileges (e.g., sudo/root) alongside Windows local administrator group references.
  • Ensure parity in troubleshooting and prerequisites for both Windows and Linux VMs.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, also provide Bash or shell script alternatives for Linux users.
  • Clarify which steps or scripts are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific, and offer alternatives where needed.
