Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. In the 'Connect to Azure after failover' section, Windows VM instructions are listed before Linux, and Windows-specific tools (such as Windows Firewall, RDP, and SAN policy) are mentioned in detail, while Linux instructions are brief and lack equivalent depth (e.g., no mention of Linux firewall configuration tools or troubleshooting steps). There are multiple notes and troubleshooting tips specific to Windows (e.g., boot time on Windows Server 2012, Windows Update issues), but similar Linux-specific guidance is missing. Additionally, references to VMware tools disabling are only contextualized for Windows VMs.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of Windows and Linux instructions, or present them in parallel to avoid Windows-first presentation.
  • Expand Linux VM connection instructions to include details on configuring common Linux firewalls (e.g., ufw, firewalld, iptables), troubleshooting SSH connectivity, and handling SELinux/AppArmor.
  • Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting notes similar to those given for Windows (e.g., what to check if SSH fails after failover, handling pending package updates).
  • Mention Linux equivalents for Windows tools and policies (e.g., SAN policy, boot diagnostics, update management).
  • Include references to Linux-specific documentation or community resources for failover/failback scenarios.
