Summary
The documentation page exhibits several instances of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell, Windows VM Guest Agent, RDP) are mentioned as workarounds or examples, often without Linux equivalents. PowerShell commands and interfaces are referenced for device management and troubleshooting, while Linux alternatives are rarely provided or are mentioned later. Some examples and instructions are tailored to Windows environments (e.g., mounting NFS shares from Windows, using Windows-specific utilities), and Linux workflows are underrepresented or missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows-specific tools and commands (e.g., suggest rsync or cp instead of robocopy/Explorer, include SSH and Linux service management commands alongside PowerShell/RDP instructions).
  • Ensure that examples for mounting NFS shares and other operations are given for both Windows and Linux clients, with Linux examples presented equally or first where appropriate.
  • Include troubleshooting steps for Linux VMs and environments, not just Windows VMs (e.g., how to restart services, check agent status, etc.).
  • Balance references to PowerShell with Bash or other Linux shell commands for device management.
  • Review and update documentation to ensure Linux users have clear, actionable guidance for all major workflows and issues.
