Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias primarily in the key vault copy step, where only a PowerShell script is provided for copying encryption keys and secrets. There is no mention of a Linux/bash alternative or cross-platform script, and the instructions explicitly recommend PowerShell. Additionally, references to disk encryption link first to Windows VM guides, and the overall pattern is to present Windows-centric tooling and examples before Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Provide a bash or Azure CLI script for copying keys and secrets between key vaults, or clarify if the PowerShell script can be run on Linux/macOS via PowerShell Core.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for scripts and modules, including installation instructions for Linux/macOS environments.
  • Add Linux-specific examples and references alongside Windows ones, especially in sections discussing disk encryption and prerequisites.
  • Ensure that documentation links and examples are balanced between Windows and Linux, or presented in parallel where possible.
