Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for migrating Batch pools to Spot VMs. However, PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is presented as the only alternative automation method, with no mention of Bash, shell scripting, or Linux-native tools. The PowerShell section is given equal prominence to Azure CLI, and there are no explicit Linux shell or scripting examples. Additionally, the documentation refers to PowerShell validation steps but does not provide equivalent Linux/Bash validation commands. The Azure portal instructions are platform-neutral, but the automation guidance leans toward Windows/PowerShell usage.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash/shell scripting examples for automation, especially for validation steps currently shown only in PowerShell.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Include Linux-native automation alternatives (e.g., Bash scripts, cron jobs) alongside PowerShell.
  • Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux, or provide guidance for Linux users if PowerShell is required.
  • Ensure that troubleshooting and validation steps include both PowerShell and Bash/CLI commands.
