Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias. While the REST API examples themselves are platform-neutral, several example responses and request bodies (especially in the Cross Region Restore section) repeatedly use 'osType': 'Windows' and Windows VM names. There are no explicit Linux VM examples, nor is there any mention of restoring Linux VMs or handling Linux-specific scenarios. This may lead Linux users to feel underrepresented or uncertain about Linux support.
Recommendations
- Include example responses and request bodies that feature Linux VMs (e.g., set 'osType': 'Linux', use Linux VM names).
- Explicitly state that the REST API supports both Windows and Linux VMs, and note any differences in restore operations or metadata.
- Add a section or note addressing Linux-specific considerations, such as file system consistency, encryption, or agent requirements.
- Ensure parity in documentation by alternating or combining Windows and Linux examples throughout, especially in sample JSON and response bodies.
- Where possible, clarify that all steps and APIs apply equally to Linux VMs, and link to Linux-specific troubleshooting or best practices.
