Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux guidance for configuring Azure Batch pools with HPC and GPU VM sizes. However, Windows examples and tooling (e.g., PowerShell, Remote Desktop, Microsoft MPI) are presented first and in greater detail, with explicit step-by-step instructions and command lines. Linux examples are present but less detailed, and some sections (e.g., installing MPI on Linux) are missing or referenced only via external links. Windows-specific tools and patterns (PowerShell, RDP) are mentioned without Linux equivalents (e.g., SSH, Bash).
Recommendations
- Provide Linux examples with equal detail and step-by-step instructions, including command lines for driver installation and MPI setup.
- Include Linux-specific tooling and workflows (e.g., SSH, Bash scripts) alongside Windows tools like PowerShell and RDP.
- Ensure that Linux examples are presented with parity in order and prominence to Windows examples.
- Add explicit instructions for installing and configuring MPI on Linux Batch pools, not just links.
- Where Windows-only extensions or tools are mentioned, clarify Linux alternatives or note if none exist.
