Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows VM examples, referencing Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as PowerShell and bcdedit), and omitting equivalent Linux-focused guidance or examples. Linux scenarios are only briefly mentioned, with minimal actionable detail, and no Linux command-line or tool examples are provided.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-specific examples alongside Windows ones, especially for restore operations, disk attachment, and post-restore steps.
- Include Linux command-line (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI) and tool usage (such as cloud-init, SSH, or Linux disk mounting) in relevant sections.
- Balance references to Windows and Linux documentation links (e.g., for attaching disks, resetting passwords, or configuring networking).
- Where PowerShell is mentioned, also provide equivalent Azure CLI or Bash scripts for Linux users.
- In post-restore troubleshooting, add Linux-specific recovery steps (e.g., using GRUB, resetting SSH keys, fixing fstab, or re-enabling cloud-init).
- Explicitly call out differences in restore workflows or limitations for Linux VMs, not just Windows.
- Ensure that screenshots and UI walkthroughs are not exclusively Windows-centric, and clarify when steps are OS-agnostic.
