Summary
The documentation demonstrates a significant Windows bias. All troubleshooting steps and command-line examples are provided exclusively for Windows environments, using PowerShell, Command Prompt, and Windows-specific tools (e.g., services.msc, MMC snap-ins, Windows file paths). There are no Linux or cross-platform alternatives, and the instructions assume the Azure Migrate appliance is accessed and managed via Windows tools. Linux users are not provided with equivalent commands or guidance.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux shell (bash) equivalents for all PowerShell/Command Prompt commands (e.g., using curl, nc, dig, systemctl).
  • Document how to check and manage the Azure Migrate appliance if it is deployed on Linux, or clarify if only Windows is supported.
  • Offer cross-platform tools or methods for connectivity checks (e.g., using telnet/nc for port checks, dig/nslookup for DNS, azcopy for Linux).
  • Mention Linux file locations and configuration steps where relevant (e.g., /etc/hosts instead of only C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts).
  • Explicitly state OS requirements and, if Windows-only, provide rationale and alternatives for Linux-based environments.
  • Include screenshots or CLI output examples from Linux terminals where possible.
