Summary
The documentation provides a balanced overview of both Linux and Windows node OS upgrade channels in AKS, but there is a mild Windows bias. Windows-specific behaviors and limitations are called out separately, and Windows tools (like kured for reboots) are mentioned. However, Linux is generally discussed first and in more detail, with explicit references to Ubuntu, Azure Linux, and related mechanisms. There are no PowerShell-only examples, but all CLI examples use Azure CLI, which is cross-platform but more commonly used on Linux/macOS. No Linux-specific command-line examples (e.g., for troubleshooting or patch status) are provided, and there are no PowerShell or Windows command-line examples for parity.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux and Windows command-line examples for checking patch status, troubleshooting, or managing upgrades (e.g., using Windows PowerShell or Linux shell commands).
- Include references to Windows-specific tools and workflows for patch management, not just kured.
- Clarify the parity of Azure CLI usage on Windows and Linux, and offer PowerShell alternatives where appropriate.
- Add more detail on how Windows users can monitor and manage node OS upgrades, especially since some channels are unsupported for Windows.
- Ensure that limitations and behaviors for both OS types are presented with equal prominence and detail.
