Summary
The documentation page is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell. All examples and references are centered around Windows PowerShell DSC, SharePoint (a Windows-only product), and tools like ReverseDSC that operate in Windows environments. There is no mention of Linux equivalents, nor are there examples or guidance for Linux systems. Even though Azure Automation DSC supports Linux nodes, the documentation does not provide steps, examples, or resources for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples and guidance for extracting configurations from Linux servers using Azure Automation State Configuration.
- Reference and link to Linux DSC resources, such as nxDSC or other Linux-compatible DSC modules.
- Include steps for generating MOF files from Linux systems, or clarify limitations if not supported.
- Ensure that onboarding instructions for Linux machines are as detailed as those for Windows, including troubleshooting and best practices.
- Balance references to PowerShell with mentions of cross-platform tools or alternatives where applicable.
