Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All setup, configuration, and troubleshooting steps are presented exclusively using Windows tools (Hyper-V Manager, PowerShell, Windows Server), with no Linux-based alternatives or examples. PowerShell commands are used throughout for automation and configuration, and there is no mention of how to perform equivalent actions from a Linux environment. Even when Linux servers are mentioned as supported for discovery, all operational instructions and examples are Windows-centric, and Linux-specific guidance is minimal or absent.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions and examples for performing discovery and appliance setup from a Linux host, where possible (e.g., using Linux KVM or other virtualization platforms).
  • Include Linux command-line alternatives for steps currently shown only with PowerShell or Windows tools.
  • Clarify any limitations or requirements for Linux users (e.g., if appliance setup is only supported on Windows, state this explicitly and suggest workarounds or alternatives).
  • Add troubleshooting steps and examples relevant to Linux environments, especially for network connectivity, credential management, and agentless discovery.
  • Ensure that Linux and Windows examples are presented with equal prominence, or at least provide clear cross-references.
  • Where only Windows is supported (e.g., Hyper-V-specific steps), clearly state this and link to equivalent Linux documentation for similar scenarios (e.g., VMware or KVM discovery).
