Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific instructions (such as registry edits and Windows Server deployment) are presented before or in more detail than Linux equivalents. The replication appliance setup is described as a Windows Server 2016 VM, with no alternative for Linux. PowerShell is mentioned as the manual setup method, with no Linux shell equivalent. Steps for Mobility service installation provide detailed Windows registry instructions, while Linux instructions are minimal (just 'prepare a root account'). Post-migration best practices discuss the Azure VM agent for Windows in detail, but only briefly mention Linux. There are no Linux-specific examples or troubleshooting steps, and Windows activation troubleshooting is called out explicitly.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux-based instructions for replication appliance setup, including shell script or manual setup steps for Linux VMs.
- Include Linux-specific examples for Mobility service installation (e.g., required packages, commands, troubleshooting).
- Add troubleshooting steps for common Linux migration issues (e.g., bootloader, kernel modules, networking).
- Ensure post-migration best practices include detailed guidance for Linux VMs (e.g., Azure VM agent installation, removing Linux-specific tools).
- Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel, rather than Windows-first.
- Reference Linux documentation links for further reading, similar to Windows activation troubleshooting.
