Summary
The documentation displays Windows bias by describing the Windows process first and in more detail, mentioning the GuestProxyAgent (GPA) can be enabled directly from an ARM template on Windows, while for Linux, the process is described as more complex but not documented with examples. All code and resource names (e.g., 'GPAWinVM') are Windows-centric, and there are no Linux-specific examples or instructions. No Linux command-line or configuration examples are provided, and the documentation does not mention Linux tools or scripts.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples for enabling MSP and configuring GPA, including the two-step process required.
  • Include ARM template or REST API examples for Linux VMs, with resource names and comments relevant to Linux.
  • Document the Linux-specific steps in detail, possibly with bash/CLI commands or scripts.
  • Mention Linux tools or patterns (e.g., cloud-init, shell scripts) where appropriate.
  • Ensure parity by presenting Linux instructions and examples alongside Windows, not only as a note.
