Summary
The documentation provides deployment options for the Azure Connected Machine agent, covering both Linux and Windows. However, several onboarding methods are Windows-specific (e.g., Windows Admin Center, Group Policy, Configuration Manager), and PowerShell is highlighted as a cross-platform tool but is more commonly associated with Windows. Windows-specific tools and methods are listed separately and in greater detail, and PowerShell-based onboarding is mentioned before Linux-native alternatives (e.g., Bash, Ansible). There are no Linux-only onboarding methods or examples provided, and Linux-native automation tools (other than Ansible) are missing.
Recommendations
- Add Linux-specific onboarding examples, such as Bash scripts or instructions using native Linux tools.
- Clarify which PowerShell methods are cross-platform and provide equivalent Bash or shell script examples for Linux users.
- Include Linux-native automation options (e.g., using shell scripts, cron jobs, or other configuration management tools like Puppet or Chef).
- Ensure that Linux onboarding methods are described with equal detail and prominence as Windows methods.
- Consider listing Linux and Windows methods in parallel, rather than grouping Windows-specific options at the end.
