Summary
The documentation page provides multiple methods for installing Arc agents at scale for VMware VMs, but there is notable Windows bias. The auto-enablement script is PowerShell-based, with instructions and examples focused on Windows terminals and Windows Task Scheduler for automation. Windows tools and patterns (PowerShell, Task Scheduler) are mentioned exclusively or before Linux equivalents. While Linux is acknowledged (e.g., sudo configuration), there are no Linux shell script examples or guidance for running the helper script on Linux/macOS. Out-of-band methods mention Ansible playbooks, but Windows-centric approaches (Group Policy, Configuration Manager) are listed first.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Bash shell script examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for the auto-enablement script.
- Include instructions for scheduling the script as a cron job on Linux, not just Windows Task Scheduler.
- Clarify whether the PowerShell script can be run cross-platform (e.g., with PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS) and provide guidance if so.
- List Linux-friendly automation methods (e.g., Ansible, Bash) before or alongside Windows methods in out-of-band approaches.
- Add explicit Linux/macOS CLI usage examples where possible.
