Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. PowerShell is presented as the only command-line method for manual appliance setup, with no Linux shell or cross-platform alternatives. Registry and group policy checks are exclusively Windows-centric, and there is no mention of Linux equivalents or how to perform similar validation on Linux-based appliances. Windows terminology and tools (e.g., registry keys, group policies, PowerShell execution policy) are referenced without Linux parity. The order of presentation also favors Windows approaches and tools.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform CLI instructions for manual appliance setup alongside PowerShell.
  • Clarify whether the appliance can be deployed on Linux-based VMs, and if so, include Linux-specific setup and validation steps.
  • Add documentation for Linux equivalents to registry and group policy checks, or explicitly state if these steps are Windows-only.
  • When listing OS-specific requirements (e.g., credentials for agent installation), offer parity in detail and troubleshooting for both Windows and Linux.
  • Consider reordering examples so that platform-neutral or Linux instructions are presented alongside or before Windows-specific steps.
