Summary
The documentation page exhibits several instances of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (e.g., sqlcmd, robocopy, Explorer), PowerShell commands, and Windows VM troubleshooting steps are presented without equivalent Linux alternatives. Windows-centric instructions are often given first or exclusively, while Linux guidance is limited or missing in several cases.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows-only tools and commands (e.g., show how to use sqlcmd on Linux, suggest rsync/scp instead of robocopy/Explorer).
  • Include Bash or Linux CLI examples alongside PowerShell commands for device management and troubleshooting.
  • Ensure troubleshooting steps for VM extensions and agent issues include Linux VM scenarios, not just Windows.
  • Where mounting or file copy examples are given, show both Windows and Linux syntax and workflows.
  • Review all instructions to ensure Linux users are equally supported, especially for Azure Stack Edge features that run on Linux VMs.
