Summary:
The documentation describes Azure Migrate discovery methods but does not provide explicit examples or guidance for Linux environments. The focus is on VMware, Hyper-V, and physical/public cloud servers, with no mention of Linux-specific tools, patterns, or discovery nuances. Hyper-V (a Windows-centric technology) is given equal prominence to VMware, and there are no Linux command-line or configuration examples. This may leave Linux users unclear about the process or requirements for their platforms.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit references to Linux environments in the 'Physical & public Cloud servers' section, clarifying support for Linux OS and any special considerations.
- Include examples or notes on discovering Linux workloads, such as supported Linux distributions, required permissions, or agent installation steps.
- Mention Linux-specific tools or logs that may be relevant for discovery or troubleshooting.
- If applicable, provide sample CSV templates or inventory exports for Linux systems in the import-based discovery section.
- Ensure parity in documentation by including Linux-focused guidance alongside Windows/Hyper-V instructions.
