Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Several workarounds and examples reference Windows-specific tools (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, PowerShell, Windows VM Guest Agent) and provide Windows command syntax or instructions before or instead of Linux equivalents. Some examples (e.g., mounting NFS shares) use Windows paths and commands, and PowerShell is repeatedly referenced for device management and troubleshooting. In some cases, Linux alternatives are missing or only briefly mentioned.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all Windows-specific commands and tools (e.g., show how to mount NFS shares using Linux mount syntax, use rsync or cp instead of robocopy/Explorer).
  • Include Linux/macOS troubleshooting steps alongside PowerShell/Windows VM Guest Agent instructions.
  • Ensure examples and sample commands are presented for both platforms, or at least alternate between Windows and Linux/macOS.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform tools where possible (e.g., AzCopy, sqlcmd) and clarify installation steps for Linux/macOS.
  • Avoid referencing Windows tools or UI elements exclusively; provide parity for Linux/macOS users.
