Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias in several areas: Windows and PowerShell are mentioned or used as the default or primary example for appliance setup, registry and group policy checks, and agent installation. Windows-specific tools and troubleshooting steps (e.g., SetupDiag, registry keys, group policies) are detailed, while Linux equivalents are either missing or only briefly referenced. Linux instructions are present but less prominent, and some steps (like agent installation) provide more detail for Windows than Linux.
Recommendations:
- Ensure Linux instructions are given equal prominence and detail as Windows instructions, especially for critical steps like appliance setup, agent installation, and troubleshooting.
- Provide explicit Linux command-line examples for all steps where Windows/PowerShell examples are given (e.g., appliance setup, agent registration, prerequisite validation).
- Include Linux-specific troubleshooting guidance, such as relevant log file locations, systemd/service management, and SELinux/AppArmor considerations.
- When referencing Windows tools (e.g., SetupDiag, registry, group policy), also mention or link to Linux equivalents (e.g., log files, system configuration files, relevant commands).
- Avoid assuming the replication appliance or management host is always Windows; clarify Linux support and provide setup instructions for both platforms.
- In checklists and summary tables, list Linux and Windows steps side by side to reinforce parity.
- Review all screenshots and UI walkthroughs to ensure they are not exclusively Windows-centric if Linux is supported.
