Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as PowerShell scripts for appliance setup) are mentioned before or instead of Linux equivalents. The instructions for manual appliance setup reference only Windows Server 2019/2022 and PowerShell, with no Linux alternative. Windows requirements (e.g., PowerShell version, Windows authentication, IIS/ASP.NET discovery) are described in detail, while Linux instructions (e.g., SSH key-based authentication) are less prominent and lack step-by-step examples. There are no Linux-based setup scripts or appliance deployment instructions, and Windows tools/paths (e.g., C:\Program Files) are referenced exclusively.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux-based setup instructions for the Azure Migrate appliance, including shell script options and supported Linux distributions.
- Include Linux examples and screenshots for credential provisioning, appliance configuration, and troubleshooting.
- Mention Linux tools and paths (e.g., /opt, /usr/local) alongside Windows paths when referencing installation locations.
- Ensure parity in authentication mechanisms, describing both Windows and Linux workflows in equal detail.
- Offer guidance for Linux-only environments, including how to perform agentless discovery and dependency analysis without Windows components.
- Add troubleshooting steps and FAQs for common Linux issues encountered during appliance setup and discovery.
