Summary
The documentation page provides a detailed PowerShell script for certificate renewal and management, with no equivalent Bash or Linux-native example. The use of PowerShell and Windows-centric tools (e.g., New-SelfSignedCertificate, AzureRm cmdlets) is exclusive, and Linux alternatives (such as OpenSSL, Azure CLI, or Bash scripting) are not mentioned. This creates a bias toward Windows users and may hinder Linux users who manage HDInsight clusters from non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash or Azure CLI examples for certificate creation, management, and assignment.
  • Include instructions for using OpenSSL to generate certificates on Linux.
  • Show how to use Azure CLI (az ad app credential, az hdinsight) for certificate/key management.
  • Explicitly state OS requirements for provided scripts, and offer cross-platform alternatives.
  • Ensure troubleshooting steps and commands are platform-agnostic or offer both Windows and Linux options.
