Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific instructions and tools (such as registry edits and Windows Firewall) are described in greater detail and appear before Linux equivalents. The section on preparing accounts for Mobility service installation provides step-by-step Windows registry instructions, while the Linux guidance is minimal. Similarly, the section on connecting after failover gives more detailed, stepwise guidance for Windows (RDP, firewall, SAN policy) than for Linux (SSH, firewall). Windows tools and terminology (e.g., Windows Firewall, RDP, registry) are mentioned explicitly, while Linux alternatives are referenced more generally.
Recommendations
  • Provide equally detailed, step-by-step instructions for Linux scenarios, such as specifying commands to create a root account or configure SSH and firewall rules.
  • When listing OS-specific steps, alternate the order or present both Windows and Linux instructions in parallel to avoid 'windows_first' bias.
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting resources and links, similar to those provided for Windows (e.g., troubleshooting SSH connectivity after failover).
  • Mention Linux tools and configuration files explicitly (e.g., /etc/ssh/sshd_config, iptables, firewalld) where Windows tools are named.
  • Where Windows registry changes are described, provide equivalent Linux configuration steps (e.g., sudoers file, systemd service management) if applicable.
