Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation generally maintains OS neutrality but demonstrates subtle Windows bias in the 'Connect to compute nodes' section by mentioning RDP/Windows nodes before SSH/Linux nodes. Additionally, when discussing troubleshooting (e.g., examining event logs), it references generic 'event logs' without clarifying Linux equivalents, and does not provide explicit Linux command-line or log file examples. There are no PowerShell-heavy or Windows-tools-only examples, but Linux-specific troubleshooting steps are underrepresented.
Recommendations:
  • In the 'Connect to compute nodes' section, present SSH/Linux connection instructions before or alongside RDP/Windows, or alternate order in different documentation sections.
  • When discussing troubleshooting (e.g., examining event logs), explicitly mention Linux log locations (such as /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages) and provide example commands (e.g., 'cat', 'less', or 'journalctl') for Linux nodes.
  • Add Linux-specific examples for common troubleshooting tasks, such as retrieving stdout/stderr files using Linux command-line tools or SDKs.
  • Ensure that all API and portal instructions are clearly labeled for both Windows and Linux, and provide parity in examples and screenshots where applicable.
