Summary
The documentation page for Azure Cloud Services (extended support) WorkerRole schema demonstrates a Windows bias. It references Windows concepts such as certificate stores ('CurrentUser', 'LocalMachine', 'My', 'Root', etc.), environment variables in Windows format (%ROLEROOT%), and startup scripts as CMD/batch files in ANSI format. There are no examples or guidance for Linux equivalents, such as Linux certificate stores, environment variable conventions, or shell script usage. All examples and terminology are Windows-centric, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform considerations.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance and examples for Linux-based WorkerRoles, including how certificate storage and access works on Linux.
- Document Linux environment variable conventions and how %ROLEROOT% maps to Linux paths.
- Provide startup script examples using bash/sh for Linux, and clarify file encoding requirements for Linux scripts.
- Mention differences in remote access, diagnostics, and other modules when running on Linux.
- Where Windows-specific terms are used (e.g., certificate store names), add notes or tables showing Linux equivalents or stating how these are handled on Linux.
- Ensure that cross-platform parity is maintained by presenting both Windows and Linux instructions/examples side by side.
