Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, specifically Windows Server and Hyper-V. All instructions, screenshots, and tooling references are for Windows-only platforms. There are no Linux or macOS equivalents, nor any mention of alternative hypervisors or command-line tools for non-Windows systems. PowerShell cmdlets are used for network configuration, with no cross-platform alternatives provided.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions and examples for provisioning Data Box Gateway on Linux-based hypervisors (e.g., KVM, VMware ESXi, VirtualBox).
  • Include Linux/macOS command-line equivalents for network configuration, such as using 'ip', 'nmcli', or other standard tools.
  • Clarify whether Data Box Gateway can be provisioned on non-Windows platforms, and if not, state this limitation explicitly at the start.
  • Provide parity in screenshots and step-by-step guides for Linux environments where possible.
  • If PowerShell cmdlets are required, suggest alternatives or note how Linux users can perform equivalent tasks.
