Summary
The documentation provides troubleshooting guidance for Azure Arc resource bridge, which is a cross-platform solution. However, there are several instances of Windows bias: PowerShell is used for network troubleshooting and DNS resolution examples, Windows-specific tools (like Remote PowerShell and RDP) are referenced, and Windows terminology (e.g., 'management machine', 'workstation', 'console session') is used. Linux equivalents (such as Bash or Linux CLI commands) are not provided alongside PowerShell examples, and Windows tools are mentioned first or exclusively in some sections. While there is some Linux-specific troubleshooting (GLIBC errors), overall, Linux/macOS users may experience friction due to missing parity in examples and tool references.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for PowerShell commands (e.g., use dig, nslookup, curl, etc.) wherever PowerShell is used.
  • Include Bash or Linux CLI examples alongside Windows/PowerShell examples for network and DNS troubleshooting.
  • Mention Linux remote access tools (e.g., SSH, console access) alongside Windows tools like RDP.
  • Clarify terminology to be platform-neutral (e.g., 'management machine' instead of 'workstation').
  • Ensure all CLI commands (az arcappliance, etc.) are shown to work on both Windows and Linux, and note any OS-specific requirements.
