Summary:
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments, as all examples and operational instructions are provided exclusively using PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-centric tools. There is no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives, and the documentation assumes the use of Windows-based management interfaces and file paths. This creates barriers for users managing Azure Stack Edge devices from Linux or non-Windows systems.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent command-line examples using cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash, or PowerShell Core on Linux) where possible.
- Clarify whether remote support and diagnostics features are available or supported when managing Azure Stack Edge devices from Linux systems.
- Include instructions for connecting to the device and managing remote support sessions from Linux/macOS, if supported.
- Document any limitations or requirements for non-Windows users, and offer workarounds or alternative workflows.
- Where file paths are referenced (e.g., C:\ProgramData\...), note the equivalent locations or access methods for Linux-based management.
- Explicitly state if the device or management interface is Windows-only, to set correct expectations for cross-platform users.
