Summary
The documentation provides troubleshooting steps for both Windows and Linux VMs but tends to offer more detailed or favorable solutions for Windows. For example, when discussing static IPs after failback, it notes that Windows VMs can reacquire their static IPs automatically, while Linux users are told to manually reconfigure the IP, with no command-line example provided. There are no PowerShell-specific commands or Windows-only tools, but Linux-specific troubleshooting is less detailed and lacks parity in guidance.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux command-line examples (e.g., how to set a static IP on common distributions) alongside Windows guidance.
  • Clarify any differences in process between Windows and Linux VMs, and ensure both are covered equally in troubleshooting steps.
  • Where Windows behavior is described as automatic, explain if and how similar automation can be achieved for Linux (e.g., via cloud-init or network manager scripts).
  • Include references to Linux tools (e.g., nmcli, ifconfig, systemctl) where relevant, not just generic instructions.
  • Review all troubleshooting steps to ensure Linux users are not left with manual, less-detailed, or less-automated solutions.
