Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. The 'Prepare on-premises machines' section provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for Windows, including references to PowerShell, Windows Firewall, RDP, and Windows Update, while the Linux section is brief and lacks comparable detail or examples. Windows tools and patterns (e.g., RDP, PowerShell, Windows Firewall) are mentioned exclusively or before their Linux equivalents (e.g., SSH, iptables). There are no Linux command examples, and guidance for Linux is minimal compared to Windows.
Recommendations
  • Provide equally detailed instructions for Linux machines, including step-by-step guidance for configuring SSH, firewall rules (e.g., using ufw, firewalld, or iptables), and checking for pending updates.
  • Include Linux command-line examples (e.g., systemctl, firewall-cmd, ufw) similar to the PowerShell examples given for Windows.
  • Mention Linux-specific remote access tools (e.g., SSH, xrdp) and how to configure them for Azure failover scenarios.
  • Ensure that Linux guidance appears alongside Windows guidance, rather than after or in summary form.
  • Reference Linux documentation pages for preparing VMs for Azure (e.g., links to Ubuntu, CentOS, or Red Hat guides).
  • Clarify any Azure-specific differences for Linux VMs (e.g., boot diagnostics, network configuration nuances).
