Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by mentioning Windows-specific tools (Windows Admin Center, Windows Server Graphical Installer) and deployment methods before Linux equivalents. While Bash and Ansible are referenced, examples and detailed instructions are not provided for Linux. The standalone Azure Monitor Agent installation is only described for Windows client machines, with no mention of Linux client installation. PowerShell is listed before Bash, and Windows-centric management options (Group Policy, Windows Admin Center) are highlighted, while Linux-native approaches are less visible.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux deployment examples and instructions alongside Windows methods, such as using shell scripts, systemd services, or Linux package managers.
- Include references to Linux-native management tools (e.g., systemctl, cron, configuration via Ansible or Puppet) where Windows tools like Group Policy or Admin Center are mentioned.
- Add a section for standalone Azure Monitor Agent installation on Linux client machines, if supported, or clarify parity and limitations.
- Ensure that PowerShell and Bash examples are presented together, or alternate their order to avoid Windows-first presentation.
- Highlight any differences or additional steps required for Linux environments in migration, agent configuration, and networking.
