Summary
The documentation consistently presents Windows-centric tools and workflows first, such as Azure PowerShell and the Azure Portal, with detailed PowerShell examples and references to Windows-specific modules. While Azure CLI examples are provided (which are cross-platform), there is a notable emphasis on PowerShell and the Azure Portal, both of which are most commonly used on Windows. There is little to no mention of Linux-native tools, shell scripting, or guidance for Linux users outside of Azure CLI. The documentation does not provide parity for Linux-specific workflows or highlight Linux usage patterns, despite HDInsight clusters typically running on Linux.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux shell (bash) examples alongside PowerShell, especially for cluster management and monitoring tasks.
- Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and recommend CLI as the preferred cross-platform tool.
- Include instructions for using Linux-native tools (e.g., curl, jq) to interact with Azure Monitor APIs where appropriate.
- Add troubleshooting and agent management steps specific to Linux environments, such as log file locations, service management (systemctl), and permissions.
- Reorder sections so that cross-platform (CLI) or Linux-native instructions appear before Windows/PowerShell examples.
- Clarify that HDInsight clusters are Linux-based and provide guidance tailored to Linux administrators.
