Summary
The documentation page contains several instances of Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell cmdlets) are mentioned without Linux equivalents or with Windows examples shown first. Some troubleshooting steps and workarounds are provided only for Windows environments (e.g., VM Guest Agent, custom script extension, PowerShell interface), while Linux alternatives are missing or less detailed. In some cases, Linux is referenced (e.g., NFS, AzCopy, Ubuntu GPU extension), but Windows-centric instructions and tools are more prominent.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows-only tools and commands (e.g., suggest rsync/scp instead of robocopy, show Linux mount commands alongside Windows examples).
  • Include Bash and Linux CLI examples wherever PowerShell or Windows commands are given.
  • Ensure troubleshooting steps for VM extensions and agent issues include guidance for Linux VMs.
  • When referencing file operations, show both Windows (Explorer, robocopy) and Linux (cp, mv, rsync) methods.
  • List Linux examples first or side-by-side with Windows examples to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Expand documentation for Linux-specific scenarios, such as manual GPU driver installation, with step-by-step instructions.
