Summary
The documentation demonstrates mild Windows bias. While the troubleshooting steps are mostly OS-agnostic, there are notable instances where Windows-centric tools, terminology, and examples are referenced without Linux/macOS equivalents. For example, RBAC assignment guidance references PowerShell and portal workflows, and error explanations use Windows-specific file naming conventions (e.g., 'con' as an invalid directory name). There is no mention of Linux-specific troubleshooting commands, nor are Linux/macOS command-line tools (such as Bash, CLI, or shell commands) provided as alternatives. The documentation also refers to SMB and file shares in a way that assumes familiarity with Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux/macOS-specific troubleshooting steps and examples, such as using Azure CLI or Bash commands for RBAC assignments.
  • Include references to Linux tools (e.g., mount, smbclient) when discussing SMB or file share access errors.
  • Provide parity in error code explanations, e.g., mention Linux reserved filenames or path limitations alongside Windows examples.
  • Explicitly state that the agent and troubleshooting steps apply to both Windows and Linux environments, and clarify any OS-specific differences.
  • Where PowerShell or portal instructions are given, also provide equivalent Azure CLI commands.
