Summary
The documentation frequently presents Windows-centric troubleshooting steps, often referencing Windows tools (Control Panel, admin command prompt, Notepad, registry editor, WMI Control Panel) and PowerShell commands for diagnostics and remediation. Windows examples and instructions are often given before or in more detail than Linux equivalents. Some steps, such as time sync and host file editing, only mention Windows methods, with Linux alternatives missing or less emphasized. Linux instructions are present for some errors, but overall, Windows is prioritized.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all troubleshooting steps that currently only mention Windows tools (e.g., time sync, editing hosts file, restarting services).
- Ensure Linux examples are given equal prominence and detail as Windows examples, ideally side-by-side or in tabs.
- Include Linux-specific commands for checking time sync (e.g., timedatectl, ntpdate), editing hosts file (/etc/hosts), and restarting services.
- Add macOS notes where relevant, especially for physical server migration scenarios.
- Avoid referencing Windows tools (Control Panel, Notepad, registry editor) without Linux alternatives.
- Where PowerShell is used, provide equivalent Bash or shell commands for Linux.
