Summary
The documentation page for Azure Cloud Services (extended support) WorkerRole schema exhibits a Windows bias. It references Windows-specific concepts such as certificate store locations ('CurrentUser', 'LocalMachine'), store names ('My', 'Root', etc.), and environment variables (e.g., '%ROLEROOT%'). Startup tasks are described as running CMD files and batch files in ANSI format, which are Windows-centric. There are no examples or mentions of Linux equivalents, such as shell scripts, Linux certificate stores, or Linux environment variable conventions. All examples and terminology assume a Windows environment, with no guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Add Linux-specific examples for startup tasks, such as using shell scripts (.sh) and specifying the required file format (UTF-8, etc.).
- Document how certificate management works on Linux, including where certificates are stored and how to reference them in the schema.
- Clarify environment variable conventions for Linux, and provide examples using Linux paths and variables.
- Explicitly state platform differences and provide guidance for both Windows and Linux users in relevant sections.
- Where environment variables or paths are referenced, show both Windows and Linux formats side by side.
- Review all examples and terminology to ensure Linux parity and avoid assuming a Windows-only deployment scenario.
