Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing exclusively on Azure portal and VMware vSphere UI workflows, which are typically more familiar to Windows administrators. There are no Linux-specific examples, command-line workflows (other than Azure CLI), or mentions of Linux guest management tools or patterns. The prerequisites and instructions assume VMware Tools (commonly associated with Windows VMs) and do not mention open-vm-tools or Linux-specific considerations.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit Linux guest management examples, such as using open-vm-tools for Linux VMs.
  • Add command-line workflows for enabling guest management on Linux VMs, possibly referencing shell scripts or Linux CLI tools.
  • Mention Linux-specific requirements or troubleshooting steps, such as ensuring open-vm-tools is installed and running on Linux guests.
  • Provide parity in examples and screenshots for both Windows and Linux guest operating systems.
  • Clarify that the instructions apply to both Windows and Linux VMs, and highlight any differences in the process.
