Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing PowerShell installer script instructions as the only alternative to the OVA method, using Windows-specific tools (e.g., CertUtil in Command Prompt) for file verification, referencing Windows file paths and conventions (e.g., C:\Program Files), and focusing on Windows authentication and IIS web server for discovery. There are no Linux command examples or explicit instructions for Linux-based appliance setup, verification, or credential types, and Linux tools are not mentioned for common tasks.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux-based instructions for deploying and configuring the appliance, including using Linux shell commands for file verification (e.g., sha256sum) and Linux file paths.
- Include Linux authentication and web server (e.g., Apache, Nginx) discovery examples and clarify support for Linux-based workloads.
- When referencing credential types, give Linux examples and clarify any differences in required permissions or setup steps.
- Where PowerShell or Windows tools are mentioned, offer side-by-side Linux alternatives.
- Avoid using Windows paths and tools exclusively; use cross-platform language or provide both Windows and Linux variants.
- Explicitly state if certain features are Windows-only, and provide guidance for Linux users where possible.
