Summary
The documentation page mentions both Windows and Linux VMs, but there is a noticeable Windows bias. Windows-specific features (Registry, Files, Software) are listed before Linux equivalents, and screenshots/examples focus on generic VM selection without showing Linux-specific configuration. The policy configuration steps list 'Configure ChangeTracking extension for Windows virtual machines' before the Linux equivalent, and there are no Linux-specific examples, screenshots, or troubleshooting notes. Windows tools and concepts (Registry, Software) are highlighted, while Linux equivalents (such as package inventory or config files) are not discussed.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux-focused examples and screenshots, such as configuring Change Tracking for Linux VMs and monitoring Linux-specific files or packages.
  • Balance the order of presentation by alternating or grouping Windows and Linux instructions, rather than listing Windows first.
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting tips and notes, similar to any Windows-specific guidance.
  • Mention Linux tools and concepts (e.g., package managers, config file locations) alongside Windows Registry and Software.
  • Ensure that all steps and options are clearly described for both platforms, with parity in detail and visibility.
