missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily in the 'Utility VM parameters' section, where the default image for the utility virtual machine is 'Windows Server 2019' and the suggested use case is to host SAPGui (a Windows-only tool). While there is a code example for defining a Linux VM image, it is not presented as the default or recommended option. There are no explicit Linux/Unix command-line examples or references to Linux-native tools, and the documentation does not provide parity in usage scenarios or defaults for Linux environments.
Recommendations:
- Present both Windows and Linux options equally in the 'Utility VM parameters' section, including default examples for both.
- Explicitly mention Linux use cases for the utility VM, such as hosting SAP CLI tools or other Linux-based SAP utilities.
- Provide example configurations for common Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, RHEL, SUSE) alongside the Windows Server example.
- Clarify that SAPGui is a Windows-only tool and suggest Linux alternatives or remote access methods if available.
- Wherever defaults are specified (such as default OS image), offer Linux as an alternative default or at least document how to select it.
- Add Linux-specific configuration or deployment examples where relevant, ensuring Linux users are equally supported.
