Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. PowerShell is mentioned as an option for cluster management, but no equivalent Bash or Linux shell example is provided. The Azure portal (a GUI, often associated with Windows workflows) is referenced first for cluster information, with Azure CLI (cross-platform) following, and PowerShell mentioned next. There are no explicit Linux command-line examples for common troubleshooting tasks (e.g., viewing logs, restarting services), except for the use of curl and netstat, which are standard on Linux. The documentation refers to the Ambari UI, which is Linux-based, but does not provide parity in command-line examples for Linux users. The directory path for script action logs uses backslashes (\), which is a Windows convention, not Linux.
Recommendations
  • When mentioning PowerShell, also provide Bash or Linux shell equivalents for all commands.
  • List cross-platform or Linux-native tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash scripts) before or alongside Windows/PowerShell tools.
  • Use forward slashes (/) for directory paths when referring to Linux-based clusters.
  • Add explicit Linux/Bash command examples for common troubleshooting tasks (e.g., viewing logs, restarting services, checking cluster health) to ensure Linux users have clear guidance.
  • Clarify when instructions or tools are specific to Windows or Linux, and provide alternatives where possible.
