Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. The only example for bandwidth throttling uses a Windows PowerShell cmdlet (New-NetQosPolicy) and references a Windows executable (GatewayWindowsService.exe). Configuration file paths and instructions (e.g., C:\ProgramData\Microsoft Azure\Config) are Windows-specific, with no mention of Linux equivalents. There are no Linux shell or tool examples, nor guidance for Linux-based appliances or environments. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively and before any Linux alternatives (which are absent).
Recommendations
- Provide Linux equivalents for all configuration steps, such as file paths and service management (e.g., /etc/azure-migrate/config, systemctl restart gateway).
- Include Linux shell examples for bandwidth throttling (e.g., using tc, wondershaper, or firewalld) alongside PowerShell examples.
- Clarify whether the Azure Migrate appliance supports Linux and, if so, document Linux-specific installation, configuration, and management steps.
- Reference both Windows and Linux service names and restart commands when instructing users to restart services.
- Add notes or sections highlighting differences or parity between Windows and Linux environments for agentless migration.
