Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation provides both Windows (ClusterManifest.xml, PowerShell) and cross-platform (ClusterConfig.json) configuration examples. However, Windows-centric formats and tools (XML manifests, PowerShell) are consistently presented first and in greater detail, with PowerShell being the only CLI example shown. There are no Linux shell or CLI examples, and the use of 'WindowsServer' in XML examples may cause confusion for Linux cluster operators.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux/Unix parity by including bash/CLI examples (e.g., using sfctl or REST API) alongside PowerShell for service creation and updates.
  • Clarify that ClusterConfig.json applies to both Windows and Linux standalone clusters, and provide examples or notes for Linux-specific scenarios if any differences exist.
  • When showing XML configuration, clarify if/when it is Windows-only, and provide equivalent Linux configuration steps if available.
  • Alternate the order of examples or explicitly state cross-platform applicability to avoid the impression that Windows is the default or only supported platform.
