Windows First
Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation page for Azure Stack Edge 2309 release notes demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Several workarounds and examples rely on PowerShell cmdlets (e.g., Set-HcsKubernetesAzureMonitorConfiguration, Get-VM, Start-VM), and Windows-specific tools and workflows (e.g., robocopy, Explorer, RDP, waappagent.exe, WindowsAzureGuestAgent) are mentioned. In many cases, Windows commands and interfaces are described without Linux/macOS equivalents, and Windows-centric instructions are given before or instead of cross-platform alternatives. Linux-specific guidance is present but less prominent, and some tasks (e.g., troubleshooting AKS, custom script extension on Windows VM) lack Linux/macOS parity.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux/macOS commands and workflows alongside PowerShell and Windows examples (e.g., show how to check VM status and restart VMs using Linux tools).
- Include Linux/macOS alternatives for file operations (e.g., suggest rsync or cp in addition to robocopy and Explorer).
- Clarify when instructions are Windows-only and offer parallel Linux/macOS steps where possible.
- Add examples for connecting to the device and managing resources using Linux/macOS shells and utilities.
- Ensure troubleshooting steps and workarounds are platform-agnostic or include both Windows and Linux/macOS options.
