Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux instructions for all major agent lifecycle operations (install, upgrade, uninstall, proxy config). However, Windows-specific tools and patterns (Control Panel, Msiexec, PowerShell, Group Policy, WSUS, Configuration Manager) are described in greater detail, with more step-by-step guidance and context than their Linux equivalents. Windows examples and sections are frequently presented first, and PowerShell is used heavily for Windows automation, while Linux instructions are more concise and rely on standard package manager commands. The Linux sections are present and functional, but lack the depth and troubleshooting detail provided for Windows.
Recommendations
- Add more detailed Linux troubleshooting and automation guidance, similar to the Windows sections (e.g., scripting upgrades/uninstalls, handling package manager errors).
- Provide parity in step-by-step instructions for Linux package manager configuration and agent management, including links to relevant Linux admin tools and best practices.
- Include Linux-first examples in some sections, or alternate the order of Windows and Linux instructions to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Expand on Linux-specific update infrastructure (e.g., using unattended-upgrades, cron jobs, or configuration management tools like Ansible or Chef) for agent lifecycle management.
- Ensure that advanced scenarios (e.g., proxy configuration, environment variable migration) are equally covered for both platforms, with troubleshooting tips for Linux.
