Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias. It frequently references Windows-centric DNS zone names (e.g., *.windows.net), and the terminology and examples are heavily oriented toward Microsoft/Azure conventions, which are rooted in Windows environments. The only explicit tooling command given is 'az account list-locations -o table', which is cross-platform, but there are no Linux-specific examples, nor are Linux tools or patterns mentioned. The 'host file' override is described generically, but does not provide platform-specific instructions or examples for Linux. The documentation does not provide parity for Linux administrators in terms of examples, troubleshooting, or DNS configuration steps.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux examples for DNS configuration, such as how to edit /etc/hosts or configure BIND/unbound for private DNS zones.
  • Include troubleshooting steps or references for common Linux DNS tools (e.g., dig, nslookup, systemd-resolved) alongside Windows equivalents.
  • Clarify that the DNS concepts and procedures apply equally to Linux and Windows, and provide platform-specific instructions where relevant.
  • Mention Linux-specific considerations for Azure File Shares (e.g., remounting via CIFS/NFS on Linux) when private endpoints are used.
  • Where host file overrides are mentioned, provide both Windows (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts) and Linux (/etc/hosts) file paths and editing instructions.
