Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments and tooling. PowerShell is repeatedly referenced as the primary management interface, with commands and troubleshooting steps given only in PowerShell. Windows VM-specific issues and workarounds are described in detail, while Linux VM equivalents are not covered. Tools and patterns such as RDP, waappagent.exe, and WindowsAzureGuestAgent are mentioned exclusively. Examples for file operations and mounting NFS shares use Windows paths and commands, with Linux alternatives either missing or mentioned after Windows. There is a lack of parity in examples and troubleshooting steps for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux shell (bash) commands and troubleshooting steps wherever PowerShell is referenced.
  • Include Linux VM-specific issues and workarounds alongside Windows VM guidance.
  • When describing tools (e.g., sqlcmd, file copy), offer both Windows and Linux usage examples.
  • Ensure NFS mount examples include Linux syntax (e.g., mount -o nolock ...) before or alongside Windows examples.
  • Reference Linux remote access methods (e.g., SSH) in addition to RDP for VM connectivity.
  • Balance documentation so that Linux and Windows users can follow all steps with platform-specific instructions.
