Summary
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific instructions, tools, and examples are presented first or exclusively in several critical steps, such as appliance setup (Windows Server 2016 VM), registry edits for push installation, and troubleshooting (Windows activation). PowerShell is mentioned as the manual setup method for the replication appliance, with no Linux alternative described. Linux instructions are present but minimal, often limited to 'use root account' or 'install agent after migration', without detailed steps or parity with Windows guidance.
Recommendations
- Provide step-by-step instructions for setting up the replication appliance on a Linux VM, including supported distributions and prerequisites.
- Include Linux-specific examples for manual Mobility service installation, such as shell commands and package management instructions.
- Offer troubleshooting guidance for common Linux migration issues (e.g., bootloader changes, activation, agent installation).
- Ensure that Linux and Windows instructions are presented with equal detail and prominence, ideally side-by-side.
- Reference Linux documentation and tools where PowerShell or Windows registry edits are mentioned.
- Clarify which steps are OS-agnostic and which require OS-specific actions, and provide alternatives for both.
