Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows and PowerShell bias. Most configuration and management instructions reference the PowerShell interface, Az cmdlets, or Windows-specific tools and workflows. Several examples and workarounds are presented only for Windows environments (e.g., using robocopy, Explorer, or Windows command line for file operations), and Linux equivalents are missing or not mentioned. Windows tools and patterns (such as RDP, waappagent.exe, Windows VM Guest Agent) are discussed in detail, while Linux/Unix approaches are not provided or are secondary. There is little to no guidance for users managing Azure Stack Edge from Linux systems.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux/bash command-line examples alongside PowerShell commands for all device management and configuration tasks.
- Mention and document Linux-native tools (e.g., rsync, cp, scp) wherever Windows tools like robocopy or Explorer are referenced.
- Include instructions for connecting to and managing the device from Linux systems, such as using SSH instead of RDP or PowerShell remoting.
- Document how to use Az CLI (cross-platform) in addition to Az PowerShell cmdlets.
- Ensure that all troubleshooting and workaround steps have Linux alternatives where applicable.
- Avoid assuming the user is on Windows; structure examples so that Linux and Windows approaches are presented with equal prominence.
