Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by referencing PowerShell as the only example for programmatically querying VM capabilities (specifically 'EphemeralOSDiskSupported'). No equivalent Linux or cross-platform CLI example is provided. Additionally, Windows tooling is mentioned before any Linux alternatives, and the documentation does not clarify how Linux/macOS users can perform the same query.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI and/or REST API examples for querying VM capabilities, especially for 'EphemeralOSDiskSupported', to ensure Linux/macOS users have clear guidance.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform tools and provide example commands for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Azure CLI, Bash, etc.).
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, include a note about equivalent steps for non-Windows environments.
  • Consider reordering examples so that cross-platform or Linux options are presented first or alongside Windows options.
