Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias by exclusively referencing PowerShell concepts, cmdlets, and error handling patterns. All examples use PowerShell syntax and Windows-centric tools (e.g., Write-Warning, Start-AzVM, Get-AutomationVariable), with no mention of Linux equivalents or Bash scripting. The error handling discussion is framed entirely in terms of PowerShell's error types and behaviors, and there are no examples or guidance for Linux-based runbooks or cross-platform scripting.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples using Bash or Python activities to illustrate error handling in graphical runbooks for Linux environments.
- Discuss error handling concepts in a platform-neutral way, referencing both PowerShell and Linux shell scripting error patterns.
- Include references to Linux tools (e.g., shell commands, error codes) and how they can be integrated into graphical runbooks.
- Provide guidance on configuring and handling errors for runbooks that execute on Linux hybrid workers, including differences from Windows/PowerShell.
- Ensure that documentation sections and examples alternate or balance between Windows and Linux approaches, rather than presenting Windows/PowerShell first and exclusively.
