Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. Most queries and examples focus on Windows-specific guest configuration assignments (e.g., 'WindowsPendingReboot'), and there is a lack of parity for Linux-specific scenarios except for a single example ('installed_application_linux'). Windows terminology and tools (PowerShell, WindowsPendingReboot) are mentioned more frequently and prominently than Linux equivalents. There are no examples for Linux guest configuration assignments such as pending reboot or compliance checks, and the documentation does not provide Linux-specific patterns or guidance outside the one application installation example.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Linux guest configuration assignment examples, such as checking for pending reboot or compliance status on Linux machines.
  • Include Linux-specific assignment names and queries in each scenario, not just for application installation.
  • Provide guidance on Linux tools or patterns where relevant, and ensure examples are balanced between Windows and Linux.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific terminology exclusively; clarify when instructions apply to both platforms or provide platform-specific sections.
  • Review the order of examples to avoid always listing Windows scenarios first, and alternate or group by platform for clarity.
