Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows Server technologies, specifically Windows Server Failover Clustering, and references Windows-centric concepts and tools (e.g., SMB fileshare, PowerShell, Hyper-V) without mentioning Linux equivalents or providing Linux-based examples. There is no discussion of Linux clustering tools, nor any guidance for Linux/macOS users, even for tasks like witness configuration or cluster management.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Azure Stack Edge clustering is based on Windows Server Failover Clustering and clarify that Linux-based clustering is not supported if that is the case.
  • If any Linux/macOS management or monitoring is possible (e.g., via SSH, REST API, or Azure portal), provide examples and instructions for those platforms.
  • Mention alternatives or interoperability options for Linux workloads, such as running Linux VMs or containers within the cluster, and how Linux users can interact with the system.
  • If PowerShell is the only supported management interface, clarify this early and provide guidance for non-Windows users (e.g., using PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS).
  • For witness configuration, discuss whether NFS or other Linux-friendly options are supported, or clarify SMB/Windows-only requirements.
