Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: troubleshooting steps and examples frequently reference Windows-specific tools (Event Viewer, Services.msc, Registry Editor, command prompt commands like net start/stop, icacls, msdtc, vssadmin, regedit, MSIEXEC, etc.) and registry modifications. Windows troubleshooting is often described in more detail and appears before Linux equivalents. PowerShell is mentioned as the automation method for VM restore, with no Linux CLI or Azure CLI alternatives. Some error resolutions and examples are exclusively Windows-focused, and Linux guidance is sometimes brief or missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux troubleshooting steps and examples for each Windows-specific instruction (e.g., show how to check agent status, logs, and services on Linux).
  • Include Azure CLI and Bash examples alongside PowerShell for automation and scripting tasks.
  • Ensure Linux tools (systemctl, journalctl, /var/log, etc.) are referenced where appropriate, especially for agent/service management and log review.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel, or clearly separate them under distinct headings, to avoid Windows-first ordering.
  • Expand Linux error handling and configuration guidance to match the detail provided for Windows (e.g., registry changes should have Linux config file or environment variable equivalents if applicable).
  • Add troubleshooting steps for common Linux backup/restore issues, such as SELinux, file system consistency, and agent installation/validation.
  • Where screenshots or examples are Windows-only, add Linux equivalents (e.g., log file output, config file locations).
