Summary
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows examples for creating Batch pools with extensions, but there is a slight Windows bias in the order and breadth of extension support. Windows-specific extensions (e.g., Antimalware, Diagnostics, HPC GPU for AMD) are listed without Linux equivalents, and Windows tools (certificateStoreLocation: LocalMachine, keyExportable) are mentioned. The troubleshooting section references logging into compute nodes but does not specify Linux troubleshooting steps or log locations. The Application Health extension section is platform-neutral, but overall, Windows extensions and tools are more prominently featured.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux and Windows examples are presented in parallel, with equal detail and order.
  • Add Linux equivalents for Windows-only extensions where possible, or clarify if not available.
  • Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting steps and log file locations.
  • Highlight platform differences explicitly and provide guidance for both OSes.
  • Avoid Windows-centric terminology (e.g., LocalMachine) without Linux analogs.
