Summary
The documentation generally maintains parity between Windows and Linux, mentioning both platforms for Hybrid Runbook Worker installation and operation. However, there is a subtle Windows bias: PowerShell cmdlets are listed before Azure CLI and other automation tools when describing onboarding channels, and references to runbook job restarts specifically mention PowerShell Workflow (a Windows-centric technology) without Linux equivalents. The documentation also refers to the local 'System' account on Windows before mentioning the 'nxautomation' account on Linux, and links for managed identities point to Windows VM tutorials first.
Recommendations
- Present onboarding channels in a neutral order (e.g., Azure CLI before PowerShell, or grouped together).
- Include explicit Linux shell (bash) and Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell examples in installation and management sections.
- Reference Linux-specific managed identity documentation and tutorials equally with Windows.
- Clarify runbook restart/checkpoint behavior for Linux and non-PowerShell workflows.
- When mentioning accounts, list Windows and Linux together or alternate order.
