Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server 2012 and its Extended Security Updates (ESUs, via Azure Arc), with no mention of Linux systems, Linux equivalents, or cross-platform scenarios. All examples, terminology, and service descriptions are specific to Windows environments. There are no Linux-specific instructions, billing scenarios, or references to Linux management tools. The documentation assumes the reader is working exclusively with Windows Server workloads.
Recommendations
- Add explicit statements clarifying whether the ESU billing service is Windows-only or if similar mechanisms exist for Linux servers managed via Azure Arc.
- Include examples or notes for Linux server management via Azure Arc, even if ESUs are not applicable, to help cross-platform administrators understand the scope.
- Reference Azure Arc's capabilities for Linux servers and clarify any differences in billing, licensing, or management compared to Windows servers.
- If relevant, provide links to documentation about managing Linux servers with Azure Arc, including security update and billing practices.
- Avoid assuming all Azure Arc users are managing Windows workloads; acknowledge and address cross-platform scenarios where possible.
