Summary
The documentation exhibits notable Windows bias. Critical steps such as setting up the replication appliance require a Windows Server VM, with no Linux alternative provided. Windows-specific tools and configuration steps (e.g., WinRM, Windows ports, Windows Server versions) are mentioned first or exclusively, while Linux instructions are present but less detailed. The replication appliance setup and installer instructions are Windows-only, meaning Linux users cannot complete the migration without provisioning a Windows VM.
Recommendations
  • Provide instructions for deploying the replication appliance on Linux-based VMs, or clarify if Windows is strictly required and why.
  • Offer parity in example commands and troubleshooting steps for both Windows and Linux environments.
  • Include Linux-first or side-by-side examples for all configuration steps, not just authentication setup.
  • Explicitly state OS requirements and alternatives for users who do not have access to Windows Server licenses.
  • Add guidance for Linux users on preparing, monitoring, and troubleshooting migrations, including equivalent tools and commands.
