Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell as the tool for restoring encrypted VMs, and by only linking to Windows-specific encryption documentation. There are no Linux-specific examples, tools, or references provided for VM restore scenarios, especially for encrypted VMs. The documentation also lists Windows scenarios and tools before (or instead of) Linux equivalents, and omits Linux-specific guidance in key restore workflows.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Linux restore examples, especially for encrypted VMs, including references to Linux disk encryption and restore workflows.
- Include links to Linux VM encryption documentation (e.g., Azure Disk Encryption for Linux) alongside Windows links.
- Provide CLI or Bash-based restore instructions in addition to PowerShell, ensuring parity for Linux administrators.
- Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify if/when Azure CLI or other cross-platform tools can be used, and provide those examples.
- Review restore scenarios to ensure Linux-specific considerations (such as file system types, mount instructions, or agent requirements) are addressed.
