Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, focusing exclusively on Microsoft HPC Pack clusters with Windows Server technologies. All examples, prerequisites, and tooling (e.g., azhpcpack.ps1 CLI, Windows Scheduled Task) are Windows-specific. Linux compute nodes are explicitly not supported, and there are no Linux/macOS equivalents or examples provided. Windows tools and patterns (Active Directory, PFX certificates, PowerShell scripts) are mentioned exclusively, with no mention of Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
- Clearly state Linux/macOS limitations at the top of the documentation.
- Provide guidance or links for Linux-based HPC alternatives (e.g., SLURM, PBS, or CycleCloud's Linux support).
- Add a roadmap or reference for future Linux support if planned.
- Where possible, mention cross-platform tools or clarify which steps are Windows-only.
- If Linux support is planned, prepare parity documentation and examples for Linux environments.
