Summary
The documentation consistently references Windows-based virtual machines in all example links and prerequisites, such as '/azure/virtual-machines/windows/quick-create-portal', '/azure/virtual-machines/windows/quick-create-powershell', and '/azure/virtual-machines/windows/quick-create-cli'. There are no explicit Linux VM example links or instructions, and the resource creation steps are Windows-centric. While Azure CLI and PowerShell are both covered, the examples and references for VM creation and management are exclusively Windows-focused, omitting Linux parity.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux VM creation links and instructions in the prerequisites for each method (portal, PowerShell, CLI), such as '/azure/virtual-machines/linux/quick-create-portal', '/azure/virtual-machines/linux/quick-create-powershell', and '/azure/virtual-machines/linux/quick-create-cli'.
  • Include Linux VM examples alongside Windows VM examples in all relevant sections, showing both OS types in resource creation and management steps.
  • Clarify that the admin state feature and commands apply equally to Linux and Windows backend pool instances.
  • Where possible, provide sample commands or screenshots for Linux VM scenarios, especially in CLI sections.
  • Ensure terminology and instructions do not assume Windows as the default platform for backend pool instances.
