Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias in several areas: Windows Server is the only supported OS for the replication appliance, with no mention of Linux alternatives; Windows configuration steps (WinRM) are listed before Linux steps; and troubleshooting and migration steps often reference Windows-specific issues and tools. Linux examples are present but less detailed, and Linux is not supported for key infrastructure roles in the migration workflow.
Recommendations
  • Provide support and instructions for deploying the replication appliance on Linux-based systems, or clarify why Linux is not supported.
  • Present Linux and Windows configuration steps in parallel, giving equal prominence and detail to both.
  • Include troubleshooting steps and examples for common Linux migration issues, not just Windows-specific problems.
  • Where Windows tools (e.g., WinRM, Windows Server) are mentioned, offer Linux equivalents (e.g., SSH, supported Linux distros) and ensure parity in guidance.
  • Expand Linux Mobility agent installation instructions to match the detail given for Windows, including automation and management options.
  • Review and update screenshots and UI references to ensure they are not exclusively Windows-centric.
