Summary
The documentation page generally presents VM extension management in a platform-neutral way, focusing on the Azure portal. However, when providing configuration examples, it specifically mentions 'deploy the Azure Monitor agent for Windows by using a proxy' without offering a Linux equivalent. There are no explicit Linux-specific examples or references, and Windows is mentioned first in the context of extension configuration. This may subtly reinforce a Windows-centric perspective and leave Linux users without clear guidance for their scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples or notes for deploying extensions on Linux machines, especially where configuration steps differ from Windows.
  • When mentioning Windows-specific scenarios (e.g., proxy configuration for the Azure Monitor agent), also provide Linux equivalents or clarify if the steps are identical or different.
  • Ensure that references to platform-specific tools or patterns (such as PowerShell) are balanced with Linux alternatives (such as Bash or CLI commands), even in related content.
  • Review screenshots and illustrations to ensure they represent both Windows and Linux environments where applicable.
