Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell script examples for registration checks and automation, referencing Windows-specific documentation links, and omitting Linux CLI or shell alternatives. The SQL IaaS Agent extension registration process is described exclusively in terms of Azure portal and PowerShell usage, with no mention of Linux tools or cross-platform CLI commands. This may disadvantage users managing SQL Server on Linux VMs or those preferring non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Include Azure CLI and Bash script examples for registration checks and automation, in addition to PowerShell.
- Reference Linux-specific documentation and provide parity for SQL IaaS Agent extension registration on Linux VMs.
- Clarify whether the SQL IaaS Agent extension and registration process applies to Linux-based SQL Server VMs, and document any differences.
- Present cross-platform instructions, listing both Windows and Linux methods side-by-side where possible.
- Avoid linking only to Windows-focused documentation (e.g., /windows/sql-agent-extension-automatic-registration-all-vms), and provide equivalent Linux documentation links if available.
