Summary
The documentation exclusively references RVTools, a Windows-only tool, for inventory export and does not mention any Linux alternatives or provide instructions for Linux users. All steps assume access to the Azure portal via a web browser, with no mention of CLI or cross-platform methods. There are no examples or guidance for Linux environments or users who may not have access to Windows tools.
Recommendations
- Mention and provide instructions for Linux-compatible inventory export tools, such as govc or PowerCLI on Linux, or other open-source alternatives.
- Clarify that RVTools is Windows-only and suggest steps for Linux users, such as running RVTools in a Windows VM or using alternative tools.
- Provide CLI-based import instructions (e.g., using Azure CLI or REST API) for users who may not use the Azure portal GUI.
- Add a section comparing RVTools with Linux-compatible tools, highlighting pros and cons and guiding users to choose the best fit for their environment.
- Include troubleshooting or FAQ for Linux users who cannot use RVTools directly.
