Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows Server/Hyper-V as the primary host platform, mentioning it before VMware, and omitting any references to Linux-based hypervisors (such as KVM or VirtualBox). There are no Linux-native instructions or examples, and the only supported host environments are Windows Server (Hyper-V) and VMware ESXi, both of which are typically managed from Windows or proprietary interfaces. No Linux command-line or tooling is referenced.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit support or documentation for Linux-based hypervisors (e.g., KVM, VirtualBox) if the product supports them.
  • If Linux is not supported as a host, clearly state this limitation early in the prerequisites.
  • Provide parity in examples and instructions for Linux environments where possible (e.g., how to download and deploy the VMDK on a Linux-managed VMware host).
  • Include Linux command-line examples for tasks such as downloading and unzipping the device image.
  • Mention Linux-compatible management tools or clarify if only Windows tools are supported.
