About This Page

This page is part of the Azure documentation. It contains code examples and configuration instructions for working with Azure services.

Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ missing_linux_example
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily in the management and configuration sections. It provides only Windows-specific tooling and examples (e.g., PowerShell cmdlets like New-NetQosPolicy, references to Windows services such as GatewayWindowsService.exe, and configuration file paths like C:\ProgramData\Microsoft Azure\Config). There are no equivalent Linux commands, tools, or file paths mentioned, nor is there guidance for Linux-based appliances or environments. The documentation implicitly assumes the Azure Migrate appliance is running on Windows, and all operational instructions are Windows-centric.
Recommendations:
  • Provide equivalent Linux-based instructions for bandwidth throttling (e.g., using tc or similar Linux network QoS tools) and reference Linux services/processes if supported.
  • Include Linux file path examples (e.g., /etc/ or /var/lib/...) for configuration files like GatewayDataWorker.json if the appliance can run on Linux.
  • Clarify whether the Azure Migrate appliance is Windows-only or if Linux is supported; if Linux is not supported, state this explicitly.
  • If Linux-based appliances are supported, add sample commands and configuration steps for Linux environments alongside Windows examples.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (e.g., C:\ProgramData) without providing cross-platform alternatives or context.
