Summary
The documentation provides troubleshooting guidance for Azure Arc resource bridge, which is a cross-platform solution. However, there is evidence of Windows bias: PowerShell is used for network troubleshooting examples, Windows-specific terms (such as 'Remote PowerShell', 'RDP', and 'time.windows.com') are referenced, and Windows/PowerShell commands are often shown before or instead of Linux equivalents. Linux troubleshooting commands (e.g., nslookup, ldd --version) are mentioned but less frequently, and some examples (such as DNS resolution and proxy troubleshooting) lack Linux-specific instructions. The documentation does not consistently offer Linux/macOS alternatives for all CLI or troubleshooting steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all PowerShell and Windows command examples (e.g., use curl, wget, dig, or nslookup for network troubleshooting).
  • When referencing Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, RDP), also mention SSH, terminal, or console access for Linux/macOS users.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI and arcappliance extension are cross-platform and provide installation/downgrade instructions for Linux/macOS (e.g., apt, yum, brew).
  • Include troubleshooting steps and error resolution commands for Linux/macOS environments alongside Windows steps.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific endpoints (e.g., time.windows.com) without mentioning Linux alternatives (e.g., pool.ntp.org).
