Summary
The documentation generally presents Azure native monitoring and management features in a platform-neutral way, but when it comes to specific operational details, there is a subtle Windows-first bias. For example, in the section about enabling guest management, the Linux-specific instructions are presented as an exception rather than as a parallel workflow. There are no concrete Linux command examples for installing extensions or managing agents, and the documentation does not provide Linux-specific tooling or troubleshooting steps, whereas Windows-centric concepts (like registry and Microsoft services) are mentioned by default.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux command-line examples for installing and managing extensions, similar to what would be done for Windows (e.g., using shell scripts or CLI commands).
- Include Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and considerations alongside Windows ones, rather than as an afterthought.
- When describing agent data collection, mention Linux equivalents (e.g., systemd services, syslog, Linux file monitoring) in parallel with Windows registry and services.
- Structure instructions so that Linux and Windows workflows are presented equally, possibly with side-by-side examples or clearly labeled sections for each OS.
- Reference Linux-native tools and patterns (such as journalctl, systemctl, or package managers) where relevant.
