Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias. It references PowerShell scripts as the method for region moves (e.g., for Azure Automation accounts), and in the SQL Virtual Machine section, it links only to Windows-specific instructions for deleting and re-registering the SQL IaaS Agent extension. There is no mention of Linux CLI equivalents or parity for these operations. Windows tools and patterns (PowerShell, Windows VM extension) are mentioned exclusively or before any Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
- Provide Azure CLI and/or Bash script examples alongside PowerShell for move operations, especially in sections referencing PowerShell scripts.
- For SQL Virtual Machine move instructions, include links and guidance for Linux-based SQL VMs, or clarify if the process is identical or different.
- Audit all references to scripts and tooling to ensure Linux and cross-platform options are presented equally and not as an afterthought.
- Where Windows-specific limitations or steps are described, explicitly state whether Linux has the same or different requirements.
- Encourage use of platform-neutral Azure Resource Manager templates and Azure CLI in examples and guidance.
