Summary
The documentation page demonstrates several instances of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell cmdlets) are mentioned without Linux equivalents, and Windows-centric examples (such as mounting NFS shares from Windows paths, troubleshooting Windows VM Guest Agent, and using PowerShell for device management) are provided before or instead of Linux alternatives. Some workarounds and instructions are exclusively for Windows environments, and Linux commands or patterns are missing or less emphasized.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows-specific commands and tools (e.g., show how to mount NFS shares from Linux, use rsync or cp instead of robocopy, and SSH instead of RDP).
  • Include Linux command-line examples (bash, systemctl, etc.) alongside PowerShell cmdlets for device management and troubleshooting.
  • Ensure troubleshooting steps for VM extensions and agent issues include both Windows and Linux VM scenarios.
  • List Linux tools and patterns before or alongside Windows ones to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Review all examples and workarounds to ensure Linux users have clear, actionable guidance.
