Summary
The documentation provides release notes for both Windows and Linux versions of the Azure Connected Machine agent. While Linux-specific features and fixes are regularly called out, Windows examples, tools, and terminology (such as MSI installers, PowerShell, Windows Event Logs, and Windows-specific system metadata) are often mentioned first or in greater detail. Windows download links are shown before Linux, and Windows tools (PowerShell, WMI, Win32 API) are referenced more frequently than Linux equivalents. Some features (e.g., Windows Event Logs, MSI certificate handling) are Windows-only, but Linux parity is generally maintained for core agent functionality.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux download links or present them together to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Where Windows tools (e.g., PowerShell, Event Logs) are mentioned, provide equivalent Linux commands or log locations (e.g., journalctl, syslog) when possible.
- Ensure Linux-specific enhancements and fixes are highlighted with equal prominence as Windows features.
- Add explicit examples or references for Linux management tools and troubleshooting steps alongside Windows ones.
- Consider a summary table for OS-specific features/fixes to clarify parity and differences.
