Summary:
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (services.msc, Control Panel, Event Viewer, regsvr32.exe, .NET, Visual C++ Redistributable) are mentioned in detail, often with screenshots and step-by-step instructions, while equivalent Linux troubleshooting steps are less detailed and lack visual aids. PowerShell is referenced as a primary automation method, and Windows procedures are often listed before Linux ones. Some troubleshooting sections (e.g., COM+, VSS, antivirus exclusions) are Windows-only, with no Linux parallels or guidance.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux commands and troubleshooting steps wherever Windows tools (e.g., services.msc, Event Viewer, regsvr32.exe) are referenced. For example, show how to check and restart the Azure agent service on Linux using systemctl, and how to view relevant logs.
- Include Linux-specific examples for antivirus exclusions, disk and extension troubleshooting, and backup job management.
- Add screenshots or terminal output examples for Linux steps, similar to the Windows screenshots provided.
- When listing steps or causes, alternate the order or present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel to avoid 'Windows first' bias.
- Reference Linux automation tools (e.g., Bash scripts, Azure CLI) alongside PowerShell, and provide CLI examples for both platforms.
- For sections that are Windows-only (e.g., COM+, VSS), explicitly state that these are not applicable to Linux, and provide Linux-specific troubleshooting for comparable issues where possible.
