Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. The 'Prepare on-premises machines' section provides detailed, step-by-step instructions for Windows, referencing Windows-specific settings, services, PowerShell, and Windows Firewall. In contrast, Linux preparation is covered in only two brief bullet points, lacking detail and omitting common Linux tasks (e.g., SSH configuration, firewall commands, service management). Windows tools and patterns (PowerShell, Windows Firewall, RDP) are mentioned exclusively or first, with no Linux command-line equivalents or examples. This creates friction for Linux users, who must infer or research their own procedures.
Recommendations
- Expand the 'Prepare Linux machines' section to match the detail of the Windows section. Include steps for checking and enabling SSH, configuring Linux firewalls (e.g., ufw, firewalld, iptables), and verifying required services.
- Provide Linux command-line examples for each step, similar to the PowerShell examples given for Windows.
- Mention Linux-specific remote access tools and patterns (e.g., SSH, xrdp if relevant), and clarify any differences in Azure VM connectivity for Linux.
- Ensure that Linux instructions are presented with equal prominence and detail as Windows instructions.
- Where scripts or automation are referenced, provide both PowerShell and Bash/CLI examples.
