Summary
The documentation generally covers both Windows and Linux VMs, but there are several instances of Windows bias. Windows examples and links are often mentioned first, and some features (like Hotpatch) are described as Windows-only without Linux equivalents or alternatives. Maintenance control via CLI and PowerShell is mentioned, but no explicit Linux shell examples are provided. References to 'PowerShell' and 'Windows Server' are more prominent, and some links (e.g., scheduled events) default to Windows documentation before Linux. Linux users may need to search for their relevant instructions, causing friction.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that Linux and Windows examples/links are presented together or alternate which is shown first.
  • Provide explicit Linux shell (bash/CLI) examples where PowerShell is mentioned.
  • For Windows-only features (e.g., Hotpatch), clearly state the lack of Linux support and suggest Linux alternatives if available.
  • Balance the mention of Windows and Linux tools and terminology throughout the documentation.
  • Where links to both Windows and Linux documentation exist, present them side-by-side rather than defaulting to Windows first.
