Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools (such as Windows PowerShell and Microsoft Windows Firewall), providing only Windows log file examples, and omitting any Linux or cross-platform equivalents. Instructions and examples are tailored to Windows environments, with no mention of Linux commands, tools, or log formats. The documentation also refers to Windows-centric patterns (e.g., Bitlocker, pfirewall.log) and does not address how to perform similar diagnostics or log collection on Linux-based Azure Stack Edge devices, if supported.
Recommendations
  • Include equivalent instructions and examples for Linux-based Azure Stack Edge devices, if supported.
  • Provide Linux command-line examples (e.g., using bash, journalctl, iptables logs) alongside PowerShell/Windows examples.
  • Mention Linux log file locations and formats where relevant, such as /var/log/syslog or /var/log/messages.
  • Clarify if certain features (e.g., Bitlocker, Windows Firewall) are Windows-only, and suggest Linux alternatives (e.g., LUKS/dm-crypt, iptables/ufw).
  • Structure sections so that Windows and Linux instructions/examples are presented in parallel, or clearly indicate OS applicability.
  • If Linux is not supported, state this explicitly to avoid confusion.
