Summary
The documentation for Azure Stack Edge 2105 release notes demonstrates a Windows and PowerShell bias. Most configuration and management instructions reference PowerShell interfaces, cmdlets, and Windows-specific tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, RDP, Windows VM Guest Agent). Linux equivalents are rarely mentioned, and Linux/CLI examples are missing even when Linux is referenced (e.g., NFS, AzCopy). Windows tools and patterns are often presented as the default or only option, with little or no parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/bash command examples for all PowerShell and Windows tool instructions (e.g., show how to configure VLANs, manage VMs, or interact with Azure Stack Edge using bash/CLI).
  • Mention and link to Linux-native tools (e.g., rsync, cp, scp) alongside Windows tools like robocopy and Explorer.
  • When referencing PowerShell cmdlets, indicate if and how they can be run from Linux (e.g., via PowerShell Core) or provide alternative Azure CLI commands.
  • For remote management, include SSH-based examples and instructions for Linux clients, not just RDP or PowerShell remoting.
  • Ensure troubleshooting steps for VM extensions, agent management, and other tasks include Linux VM scenarios, not just Windows.
  • In all tables and step-by-step guides, present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel where applicable, or clearly state platform limitations.
