Summary
The documentation exhibits a notable Windows bias, particularly in the setup of the replication appliance, which requires a Windows Server VM. Instructions and screenshots for appliance setup are exclusively for Windows, with no Linux alternative or parity. Some sections (such as Mobility service installation) do provide Linux-specific steps, but the critical replication appliance component is Windows-only, creating a significant barrier for Linux-only environments.
Recommendations
- Provide clear guidance on whether a Linux-based replication appliance is supported. If not, explicitly state that only Windows Server is supported and explain the rationale.
- If possible, develop and document a Linux-based replication appliance option to support organizations that do not use Windows Server.
- Wherever possible, offer Linux-first or Linux-parallel examples, especially for critical infrastructure components.
- Ensure that all screenshots and step-by-step instructions are available for both Windows and Linux environments, or clarify limitations.
- In troubleshooting and best practices, include Linux-specific issues and solutions alongside Windows ones.
