Summary
The documentation shows a moderate Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps for network and resource management use PowerShell and Windows-centric tools (e.g., Test-NetConnection, PowerShell scripts for Azure Resource Manager), with no equivalent Linux/Bash commands provided. Windows workflows and tools are mentioned first or exclusively in several sections, while Linux-specific guidance is limited to cloud-init and waagent configuration. Linux users may find it difficult to follow some steps, especially those involving PowerShell or Windows-specific commands.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/Bash equivalents for all PowerShell and Windows command examples, such as using 'nc' (netcat), 'curl', or 'ping' for network checks.
  • Include Azure CLI (cross-platform) examples alongside or instead of PowerShell scripts for interacting with Azure Resource Manager and managing resources.
  • When listing workflows or troubleshooting steps, present both Windows and Linux paths in parallel, or clearly indicate which steps apply to each OS.
  • Add troubleshooting steps for Linux users where only Windows instructions are currently given (e.g., how to check for duplicate IPs or network connectivity from a Linux VM).
