Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is mentioned as an alternative method for creating custom images, and uploading VHD files via PowerShell is listed as an option. Windows tools (Sysprep) are referenced before their Linux equivalents (deprovision), and PowerShell is highlighted as a primary automation tool, with no mention of Bash, CLI, or Linux-native scripting alternatives. The upload instructions and examples focus on Microsoft-centric tools (AzCopy, Storage Explorer, PowerShell), which are more familiar to Windows users, and do not provide parity for Linux command-line tools or workflows.
Recommendations
- Include examples and instructions for using Azure CLI and Bash scripts for both uploading VHD files and creating custom images.
- Mention Linux-native tools (such as dd, qemu-img, or SCP) for preparing and transferring VHD files.
- Provide equal prominence to Linux workflows and tools alongside Windows/PowerShell options.
- Add explicit examples for Linux users, such as using the Azure CLI on Linux to create custom images.
- Ensure that references to OS-specific preparation steps (sysprep for Windows, deprovision for Linux) are presented in parallel and with equal detail.
