Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric tools, terminology, and examples. Windows-specific monitoring targets (registry, files, Microsoft services) are mentioned before Linux equivalents, and there is a lack of Linux-specific operational guidance. The only Linux-specific instruction is a workaround for sudo prompts, with no deeper Linux integration or troubleshooting examples. No Linux command-line or configuration examples are provided, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows patterns and tools.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific examples for monitoring and extension installation, such as sample commands for installing the Log Analytics agent on Linux VMs.
- Include Linux monitoring targets (e.g., systemd services, log files) alongside Windows registry and services, and mention them with equal prominence.
- Offer troubleshooting steps and operational guidance for both Windows and Linux VMs, including common issues and solutions.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are treated equally, rather than listing Windows tools and patterns first.
- Add references to Linux documentation and best practices for integrating with Azure native services.
