Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. PowerShell commands are exclusively used for Azure Batch account and pipeline management, with no mention of equivalent Azure CLI or Bash commands. Examples for executing commands on Batch nodes use Windows-specific tools (e.g., 'cmd /c', '.exe' applications) and do not provide Linux shell equivalents. Windows patterns and tooling are mentioned first and exclusively, while Linux options are missing throughout the page.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI and Bash examples for creating and managing Azure Batch accounts and pipelines, alongside PowerShell.
  • Provide Linux shell command examples (e.g., '/bin/bash -c "echo hello world"') for the 'command' property in Custom Activity, and clarify OS-specific differences.
  • Include examples of running Linux executables (e.g., ELF binaries, Python scripts) in addition to Windows '.exe' files.
  • Explicitly document how to configure Azure Batch pools with Linux VM images, and note any differences in command syntax or file paths.
  • Ensure that references to Windows tools (cmd, .exe) are balanced with Linux equivalents (bash, .sh, etc.), and avoid presenting Windows options first or exclusively.
