Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in the section on connecting to the VM, where it references connecting via RDP and links to Windows-specific Azure documentation. No Linux or macOS alternatives (such as SSH or remote desktop clients for those platforms) are provided for accessing the VM. The rest of the guide, including appliance configuration and SSH setup, uses Linux-centric commands, but initial access instructions are Windows-focused.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for connecting to the VM from Linux and macOS, such as using SSH or compatible remote desktop clients (e.g., Remmina, KRDC, Microsoft Remote Desktop for macOS).
  • Provide cross-platform examples or links for VM access, not just Windows RDP.
  • Reference Azure documentation for Linux/macOS VM access alongside the Windows guide.
  • Clarify that the Bitnami appliances themselves are Linux-based and that most configuration steps are OS-agnostic once the VM is accessed.

🔧 Windows Tools Windows First
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates some Windows bias in its description of Zerto platform components. The Zerto Cloud Appliance (ZCA), which is required for recovery to Azure Native IaaS VMs, is described as a Windows VM, and its subcomponents (ZVM and VRA) are Windows services. No Linux alternatives or parity are mentioned for this scenario. The ZCA is the only component described as Windows-only, while other core components (ZVMA, vRA) are Linux-based. The documentation does not provide Linux/macOS-specific instructions or examples for ZCA scenarios, nor does it clarify if Linux users can perform equivalent tasks for Azure VM recovery. The order of presentation puts the Windows-only ZCA after Linux-based components, but the lack of Linux parity for ZCA is notable.
Recommendations
  • Clarify whether ZCA functionality (recovery to Azure Native IaaS VMs) is available for Linux users, or provide Linux-based alternatives if possible.
  • If ZCA must be Windows-only, explicitly state this limitation and suggest workarounds or alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
  • Provide cross-platform instructions or examples for all major workflows, especially those involving ZCA.
  • Consider adding a table or section comparing Windows and Linux support for each component and scenario.
