Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing exclusively on installing the Hybrid Worker extension on Windows Azure Virtual Machines. All step-by-step instructions, screenshots, and extension selection refer only to 'Azure Automation Windows Hybrid Worker', with no mention or example for Linux VMs. Prerequisites specifically call out a Windows VM, and there are no Linux-specific instructions, screenshots, or extension names provided. The documentation does not illustrate parity for Linux users, despite mentioning Linux support in the introduction.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and screenshots for installing the Hybrid Worker extension on Linux Azure Virtual Machines.
  • Include the extension name for Linux (e.g., 'Azure Automation Linux Hybrid Worker') in the step-by-step guide.
  • Update prerequisites to mention both Windows and Linux VMs as supported targets.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions side-by-side or in parallel sections to ensure equal visibility.
  • Clarify any differences in configuration or requirements between Windows and Linux installations.
