Summary
The documentation page lists several cluster template types, and the only project with a Microsoft-specific/Windows-specific tool is 'HPC Pack', which is a Windows-only job scheduler. Additionally, the link for HPC Pack points to a PowerShell documentation page, and it is listed before several Linux-native schedulers (HTCondor, LSF, OpenPBS, Slurm). However, the CLI example given is cross-platform and there are examples for Linux-native schedulers as well. There are no explicit PowerShell commands or Windows-only instructions, but the presence and placement of HPC Pack and its PowerShell link indicate a mild Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that Linux-native schedulers (e.g., Slurm, OpenPBS) are given equal prominence in the table, possibly by ordering them alphabetically or by usage popularity.
  • Provide links to Linux documentation or usage guides for each scheduler, not just for the Windows-specific HPC Pack.
  • If referencing Windows tools (like HPC Pack), also provide equivalent Linux tool references or clarify platform support for each template.
  • Avoid linking directly to PowerShell documentation unless a Linux equivalent is also provided.
