Summary
The documentation page demonstrates some Windows bias. In the 'ResourceGroupNotFound' error, both Azure CLI and PowerShell are mentioned, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is listed second, which is positive. However, in other areas, Windows-specific links or examples are given before Linux equivalents (e.g., 'AllocationFailed' lists Linux first, but 'SubnetsNotInSameVnet' lists Windows first). There are also references to Windows-specific troubleshooting pages and tools, such as PowerShell, without always providing parity for Linux users. No explicit Linux command-line examples (e.g., bash) are given, and some links reference Windows VM documentation before Linux VM documentation.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that Linux equivalents (e.g., bash, Azure CLI) are always mentioned alongside Windows tools like PowerShell, and consider listing Linux options first or alternating order.
  • Add explicit Linux command-line examples where PowerShell is referenced, especially for common troubleshooting tasks.
  • Where troubleshooting links are provided for Windows, ensure Linux links are also present and given equal prominence.
  • Review all error mitigation steps to ensure Linux users are not required to infer steps from Windows-centric instructions.
  • Consider a dedicated section or callout for cross-platform troubleshooting tips, highlighting differences and parity between Windows and Linux environments.
