Summary
The documentation page provides a comprehensive reference for Service Fabric cluster settings, but exhibits mild Windows bias in several areas. Windows terminology (e.g., 'Windows Fabric', 'Windows only') is used in parameter descriptions, and Windows certificate store names ('MY', 'LocalMachine') are referenced without Linux equivalents or clarification. Some settings (e.g., NTLM authentication, Windows Update integration, log file settings) are marked as 'Windows only' or default to Windows values, with Linux-specific guidance missing or less prominent. The introductory guidance and links reference Windows standalone clusters before Linux, and Linux-specific settings (like certificate folders or executable paths) are less visible or explained. No explicit Linux examples or parity guidance are provided for settings that differ between platforms.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific examples and guidance for settings where behavior or defaults differ (e.g., certificate stores, log file locations, NTLM authentication).
  • Clarify which parameters are Windows-only and which are cross-platform, and provide Linux equivalents or alternatives where possible.
  • Ensure Linux terminology and paths are shown alongside Windows ones, especially for certificate management and file paths.
  • Add explicit notes or tables summarizing platform-specific differences for key settings.
  • Review introductory guidance and links to ensure Linux clusters are referenced equally and not only after Windows.
  • Where settings are marked 'Windows only', provide Linux alternatives or state if the feature is unavailable.
