Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, with all examples, scripts, and tooling based on Windows Server and PowerShell. Preparation steps, appliance deployment, and credential delegation are described exclusively using Windows tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell, WinRM, Hyper-V Manager, Local Group Policy Editor). Linux support is mentioned for server discovery, but there are no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or parity in tooling. This creates friction for Linux users and administrators who may need to interact with the appliance or Hyper-V hosts from non-Windows systems.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for key steps, such as validating appliance integrity (e.g., using sha256sum), connecting to Hyper-V hosts, and managing credentials.
  • Include CLI examples for Linux where possible, especially for tasks like hash validation, credential management, and remote access.
  • Clarify whether the Azure Migrate appliance can be managed or interacted with from Linux/macOS hosts, and document any limitations or alternatives.
  • Add explicit instructions or references for Linux administrators who need to perform discovery or management tasks, including SSH-based access and configuration.
  • Balance the order of presentation so that Linux options/examples are shown alongside or before Windows-specific ones where appropriate.
