Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows environments. It exclusively references Windows tools (Visual Studio, WindowsServer VM images, cmd.exe), uses Windows-specific NuGet packages (Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.WindowsServer), and provides only PowerShell and Windows command-line examples. There is no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents, nor guidance for deploying or running Application Insights in non-Windows Batch pools.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions and examples for Linux-based Batch pools, including VM image selection and configuration.
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for package installation (e.g., dotnet CLI, NuGet CLI) and command-line usage.
  • Clarify whether Application Insights instrumentation works on Linux compute nodes, and if so, detail any differences (e.g., use Microsoft.ApplicationInsights instead of WindowsServer-specific package).
  • Include cross-platform code samples and configuration steps.
  • Mention and link to documentation for Application Insights support in non-Windows environments.
