Summary:
The documentation exhibits a Windows/Azure-centric bias by exclusively referencing the Azure portal and Windows-based management patterns, with no mention of Linux tools, CLI alternatives, or cross-platform workflows. All instructions and screenshots are based on the Azure portal UI, and there are no PowerShell or CLI commands, but also no Linux shell or cross-platform examples. The documentation assumes the user is operating in a Windows/Azure environment, omitting Linux-native or cross-platform approaches for tasks such as credential retrieval, OVA deployment, or network configuration.
Recommendations:
- Include equivalent instructions for performing key tasks (such as credential retrieval, OVA deployment, and network configuration) using cross-platform tools like Azure CLI, VMware CLI tools (ovftool), or REST APIs, which can be run on Linux, macOS, or Windows.
- Provide example commands for OVA deployment using ovftool or govc, which are commonly used on Linux systems.
- Mention how to retrieve VMware credentials and manage NSX/vCenter from the command line or via API, not just through the Azure portal UI.
- Add notes or sections highlighting any differences or additional steps for users working from Linux or macOS environments.
- Where screenshots are used, consider including CLI output or cross-platform tool screenshots in addition to portal UI images.
