Summary
The documentation claims support for both Windows and Linux, but Windows tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell) are mentioned first or exclusively in several places. Example commands for installing the Azure Monitor Agent are provided for PowerShell before Linux alternatives, and there are no explicit Linux shell command examples for agent installation. The ARM template and portal instructions are platform-neutral, but the lack of Linux-specific examples and the ordering of Windows instructions suggest a subtle Windows-first bias.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux shell command examples (e.g., bash/apt/yum) for installing the Azure Monitor Agent alongside PowerShell commands.
- Ensure Linux instructions (such as using Azure CLI or shell scripts) are presented with equal prominence and ordering as Windows/PowerShell instructions.
- Add screenshots or walkthroughs for Linux VM configuration in the portal, not just generic VM selection.
- Include troubleshooting and configuration tips specific to Linux environments, such as SELinux, systemd, or log rotation.
- Review the ordering of instructions and examples to alternate or parallelize Windows and Linux content, rather than defaulting to Windows-first.
