Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by listing Hyper-V (a Windows virtualization platform) first and in detail, while Linux-based virtualization platforms (such as KVM or Xen) are not mentioned at all. VMware ESXi is included, but no Linux-native hypervisors or deployment options are discussed. There are no Linux-specific examples, tools, or instructions, and the documentation does not address Linux host requirements or patterns, focusing instead on Windows-centric technologies and terminology.
Recommendations
- Include Linux-based virtualization platforms (e.g., KVM, Xen) in the supported platforms table, or explicitly state their support status.
- Provide examples and requirements for deploying Data Box Gateway on Linux hosts, including any necessary dependencies or configuration steps.
- Mention Linux-specific tools and patterns where relevant (e.g., iptables for firewall configuration, Linux SMB clients).
- Ensure parity in documentation by offering both Windows and Linux instructions/examples for all major deployment and configuration steps.
