Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows troubleshooting steps and tools (e.g., services.msc, Event Viewer, Control Panel, .NET, Visual C++ Redistributable) are described in detail, often with screenshots, while Linux equivalents are less detailed or omitted. Windows is frequently mentioned first in lists and instructions, and PowerShell is referenced for operations without equivalent Bash/CLI commands for Linux. Some troubleshooting steps (e.g., antivirus exclusions, COM+/MSDTC, VSS writer) are Windows-specific, with no Linux alternatives or explanations. Linux instructions are present but less comprehensive, and examples for Linux (e.g., log locations, service management) are brief and lack visual aids.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux troubleshooting steps with equal detail, including screenshots or terminal output where appropriate.
  • Include Linux equivalents for all Windows tools mentioned (e.g., show how to check agent status with systemctl, view logs with journalctl or tail, manage packages, etc.).
  • When listing steps or causes, alternate or group by OS rather than always listing Windows first.
  • Add Bash/CLI commands for operations currently only described with PowerShell (e.g., cancelling backup jobs, configuring static IPs).
  • For Windows-specific features (e.g., VSS, COM+/MSDTC, Event Viewer), clarify their Linux equivalents or note if not applicable.
  • Expand Linux agent troubleshooting to cover common issues (e.g., permissions, SELinux/AppArmor, dependency installation) and provide links to relevant Linux documentation.
  • Ensure antivirus and application control troubleshooting covers common Linux solutions (e.g., ClamAV, SELinux policies) where applicable.
