Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux instructions for all major lifecycle tasks (install, upgrade, uninstall, proxy config), using tabbed sections for each OS/package manager. However, there is a notable Windows bias in several areas: Windows instructions and tools (Control Panel, MSI installer, PowerShell, Group Policy, WSUS, Configuration Manager) are often described in greater detail, with more step-by-step guidance and troubleshooting. Windows examples (especially PowerShell) are sometimes presented before Linux equivalents, and the only provided cleanup script for stale resources is in PowerShell, with no Linux shell or Azure CLI alternative. Linux instructions are present and generally sufficient, but less detailed and lack parity in automation examples.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent automation scripts for Linux users (e.g., Bash/Azure CLI script for stale resource cleanup).
  • Ensure Linux instructions are as detailed as Windows instructions (e.g., troubleshooting, package manager nuances, log file locations).
  • Where possible, present OS options in parallel or randomize order, rather than consistently listing Windows first.
  • Add more Linux-specific operational guidance, such as using systemd for service restarts, or integration with Linux configuration management tools.
  • For proxy configuration, clarify Linux service restart procedures and provide troubleshooting steps similar to those for Windows.
