Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several areas. Troubleshooting steps and examples frequently use Windows-centric tools (e.g., PowerShell, Test-NetConnection) and scripts, with Linux equivalents either omitted or referenced later. Windows workflows and image preparation are described in detail, while Linux instructions are less prominent and sometimes only mentioned parenthetically. There is a lack of parity in command examples and troubleshooting scripts for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux command-line examples (e.g., use 'ip', 'ifconfig', 'netcat', 'ss', or 'curl' for network checks instead of only 'ping' and PowerShell commands).
  • Include Bash or shell script examples alongside PowerShell scripts for resource management and troubleshooting.
  • Present Windows and Linux workflows side-by-side, or alternate which OS is presented first in each section.
  • Expand troubleshooting steps for Linux VMs to match the detail given for Windows, including log collection, image preparation, and network diagnostics.
  • Reference Linux-specific tools (e.g., waagent, cloud-init, systemctl) with usage examples where appropriate.
  • Ensure that all steps and error messages are illustrated for both Windows and Linux environments, not just Windows.
