Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell automation for gateway management, mentioning the 'gateway Windows service account', and omitting any Linux installation, management, or troubleshooting examples. There are no references to Linux tools, commands, or service management patterns, and all automation guidance is PowerShell-centric. The documentation implicitly assumes the gateway is installed and managed on Windows, with no parity for Linux environments.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for installing and managing the on-premises data gateway on Linux, if supported.
  • Include Linux command-line equivalents (e.g., systemctl for service management) alongside PowerShell/Windows service instructions.
  • Reference automation options for Linux environments (e.g., Bash scripts, Azure CLI) where PowerShell is mentioned.
  • Clarify OS support for the gateway early in the documentation, and provide links or notes for Linux-specific guidance if available.
  • Ensure troubleshooting and operational guidance (such as restarting the gateway service) is provided for both Windows and Linux.
