Summary
The documentation describes onboarding both Windows and Linux machines to Azure Arc via Automation Update Management, but operational details and examples are Windows-centric. References to runbooks (e.g., Add-UMMachinesToArcWindowsChild) and Azure PowerShell are prominent, while Linux-specific commands, tools, or troubleshooting steps are not shown. The verification and management steps are described generically, but the absence of explicit Linux command-line or shell examples, and the mention of PowerShell for status retrieval, indicate a Windows-first bias.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux shell (bash) examples for key steps, such as agent installation, verification, and troubleshooting.
- Include references to Linux-native tools (e.g., journalctl, systemctl) for agent status and log review.
- Provide parity in runbook descriptions, showing both Windows and Linux child runbook logic or sample code.
- Mention Azure CLI usage for both Windows and Linux environments, not just PowerShell.
- Ensure troubleshooting guides include Linux-specific error messages and resolution steps.
