Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows Server 2012 and its management within Azure Arc, with all examples, screenshots, and workflows centered on Windows environments. There are no Linux equivalents or examples provided, and only Windows-specific tools and patching solutions are mentioned. The documentation assumes the reader is managing Windows servers exclusively, omitting any guidance for Linux systems or cross-platform scenarios.
Recommendations
- Add explicit statements clarifying that the ESU process described is only applicable to Windows Server, and provide links or references for Linux security update management in Azure Arc if relevant.
- Include examples or sections for managing security updates on Linux servers onboarded to Azure Arc, or clarify the differences in process and tooling.
- Mention Linux-compatible patch management solutions (such as Azure Update Manager for Linux, or third-party tools) alongside Windows-specific ones, and provide parity in documentation structure.
- If Azure Arc supports Linux servers for other update scenarios, provide cross-platform comparison tables or workflows to help administrators manage both Windows and Linux environments.
