Summary
The documentation provides configuration instructions for Instant Restore snapshot retention using the Azure portal and PowerShell, but does not mention or provide examples for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash, or REST API). PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its use is presented as the primary automation method, creating friction for Linux/macOS administrators. No Linux-specific tools or parity examples are given.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Azure CLI examples for configuring snapshot retention, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux/macOS.
- Mention REST API options for automation, with sample requests.
- Explicitly state that PowerShell is available cross-platform, but provide installation guidance for Linux/macOS if PowerShell is recommended.
- Order examples so that cross-platform tools (Azure CLI, REST API) are shown before or alongside PowerShell, not after.
- Include a note clarifying tool availability and parity for non-Windows users.
