Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell and Windows OS credentials exclusively, requiring PowerShell and VMware Tools for discovery, and providing no examples or instructions for Linux-based environments. The credential and discovery instructions focus on Windows authentication patterns, and there is no mention of Linux tools, authentication methods, or discovery steps for Linux servers.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit instructions and examples for discovering SQL Server instances running on Linux servers, including supported authentication methods (e.g., SQL authentication, Linux user credentials).
  • Mention any required tools or prerequisites for Linux-based appliances (e.g., bash, SSH, required packages) alongside PowerShell and VMware Tools.
  • Provide parity in credential management instructions, such as how to add Linux credentials or handle discovery on non-Windows OS.
  • Add notes or sections clarifying support (or limitations) for SQL Server on Linux and how the discovery process differs, if at all.
  • Ensure screenshots and UI references are not exclusively Windows-centric, or provide Linux-specific alternatives where applicable.
