Summary
The documentation is strongly Windows-centric, focusing exclusively on migrating Hyper-V VMs (a Windows technology) and providing only Windows-based tooling, commands, and troubleshooting steps. All command-line examples use Windows paths and executables, and there is no mention of Linux equivalents, Linux-based Hyper-V hosts, or migration scenarios involving Linux guest VMs. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., SetupDiag, Windows activation troubleshooting) are referenced, and Linux is only mentioned in passing in post-migration best practices.
Recommendations
  • Clarify whether Linux guest VMs on Hyper-V are supported and provide guidance for their migration, including any OS-specific caveats.
  • Include examples or notes for migrating Linux-based VMs, such as handling Linux bootloaders, disk formats, and post-migration configuration.
  • If command-line automation is supported, offer Linux shell (bash) equivalents for relevant steps, or explicitly state that only Windows hosts are supported.
  • Add troubleshooting steps and references for common Linux migration issues (e.g., SSH key handling, network configuration, activation/licensing differences).
  • Balance references to Windows tools (e.g., SetupDiag) with Linux alternatives or clarify their applicability.
  • In post-migration best practices, provide more detail on securing and updating Linux VMs, not just Windows.
