Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_first
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric terminology, deployment patterns, and tools. There is a lack of explicit Linux or cross-platform examples, and Windows/SMB protocols and environments are referenced before (or instead of) their Linux/NFS equivalents. Additionally, the documentation mentions Windows-oriented tools and platforms (e.g., Hyper-V, SMB/CIFS, DFS) without providing Linux alternatives or guidance.
Recommendations:
  • Add explicit Linux/NFS examples alongside SMB/Windows examples, especially when describing adding shares, configuring credentials, and migration cutover steps.
  • When discussing deployment, mention Linux hypervisors (e.g., KVM, Xen) and provide steps for deploying Komprise Observers/Proxies on Linux-based environments.
  • Include Linux-native tools for network and storage performance assessment (e.g., iperf, nload, atop, iostat) in addition to or instead of commercial Windows-centric tools.
  • In migration cutover instructions, provide Linux/Unix equivalents for changing mount points (e.g., updating /etc/fstab, using NFS mounts) and not just Windows DNS/DFS changes.
  • Clarify that Komprise supports both SMB and NFS protocols, and provide guidance for both, including permissions and ACL preservation for Linux/NFS.
  • Ensure screenshots and walkthroughs are not exclusively from Windows environments or Azure Portal; include CLI or Linux-based management where possible.
