Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias in the troubleshooting steps for the Azure Migrate appliance. Configuration changes on the appliance are described using Windows-specific tools and paths (e.g., '%programdata%', Remote Desktop, PowerShell commands), with no mention of Linux equivalents or guidance for non-Windows environments. Windows tools and patterns (Remote Desktop, PowerShell, Windows service control commands) are presented exclusively and before any consideration of Linux or cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions for Linux-based appliances, including file paths, service management commands (e.g., systemctl), and remote access methods (e.g., SSH).
  • Clarify whether the Azure Migrate appliance can run on Linux, and if so, include Linux-specific troubleshooting steps.
  • When giving examples, present both Windows and Linux approaches side-by-side, or indicate platform-specific sections.
  • Avoid assuming Remote Desktop and PowerShell are universally available; mention alternatives like SSH and bash for Linux/macOS users.
