Summary
The documentation lists Windows operating systems first in compatibility, and provides a warning that Windows users can enable GuestProxyAgent (GPA) directly from an ARM template, while Linux users must perform a two-step process. However, there are no Linux-specific instructions or examples provided, and no mention of Linux tooling or commands. This creates friction for Linux users who may need more guidance for the additional steps.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit step-by-step instructions for enabling GPA on Linux, including any required commands or configuration files.
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and tooling references (e.g., shell commands, systemd integration) alongside Windows/ARM template examples.
  • List supported operating systems in alphabetical order or group by platform to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Clarify any differences in process between Windows and Linux with equal detail for both.
