Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Critical setup steps (such as deploying the Azure Migrate appliance without OVA) are described only for Windows (PowerShell script on Windows Server 2019/2022), with no Linux alternative. Windows tools (PowerShell, Windows authentication, IIS) are mentioned first or exclusively in several places. Linux support is referenced, but Linux-specific setup instructions, troubleshooting, and parity for appliance deployment are missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit instructions for deploying the Azure Migrate appliance on Linux hosts, including supported distributions and setup scripts.
  • Offer Linux shell (bash/ssh) examples alongside PowerShell for appliance setup and management.
  • Clarify whether the PowerShell script method is Windows-only, and if so, provide a Linux equivalent or state Linux limitations.
  • Include troubleshooting and configuration steps for Linux environments (e.g., SELinux, firewalls, systemd services).
  • Ensure Linux tools and patterns (such as systemd, SSH, Linux authentication) are described with equal prominence as Windows tools.
  • Add parity for application discovery examples (e.g., Apache/Tomcat for Linux, not just IIS/ASP.NET for Windows).
