Summary
The documentation page focuses exclusively on the Key Vault VM extension for Windows, with repeated references to Windows-specific concepts such as the Windows certificate store, 'LocalMachine', and 'My' store names. There are no examples or instructions for Linux VMs, nor any mention of Linux certificate management patterns or tools. The extension is described and demonstrated only in the context of Windows, and all configuration snippets (ARM template, ServiceDefinition.csdef) use Windows-centric terminology.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit information about Linux support: clarify whether the Key Vault VM extension is available for Linux VMs in Azure Cloud Services (extended support).
  • If Linux is supported, provide equivalent examples for Linux, including certificate store locations, relevant settings, and configuration steps.
  • Mention Linux certificate management tools and patterns (e.g., using PEM files, /etc/ssl/certs, or integrating with OpenSSL).
  • If the extension is Windows-only, state this clearly at the beginning of the documentation to avoid confusion.
  • Ensure future documentation covers both Windows and Linux scenarios, or provides parity in examples and guidance.
