Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias. The Zerto Cloud Appliance (ZCA) is described as a Windows-only VM, and its components (ZVM and VRA) are specified as Windows services. Windows tooling is highlighted for recovery to Azure Native IaaS VMs, with no mention of Linux alternatives or parity for these components. The documentation provides more detail for Windows-based components and scenarios, while Linux-based components (ZVMA, vRA) are described but lack practical examples or installation guidance. There are no Linux command-line or configuration examples, and Windows tools/patterns are mentioned before Linux equivalents in the ZCA section.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-based examples and installation instructions for Zerto components where applicable, especially for ZVMA and vRA.
- Clarify whether Linux alternatives exist for ZCA functionality, or explicitly state if Windows is required for certain scenarios.
- Ensure parity in troubleshooting and log collection instructions for both Windows and Linux appliances.
- Include sample workflows or commands for Linux environments alongside Windows examples, especially for deployment, configuration, and log collection.
- Balance the order and detail of Windows and Linux component descriptions to avoid the perception of Windows-first bias.
