Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for automating the migration of low-priority VMs to Spot VMs in Azure Batch. However, the PowerShell examples are presented as the only alternative automation method after the CLI, with no mention of Bash, shell scripting, or Linux/macOS-specific automation approaches. The PowerShell section assumes the user is familiar with Windows tooling, and there are no explicit Linux/macOS command-line or scripting examples beyond the Azure CLI. Additionally, the PowerShell section is more detailed than the CLI section, and the ordering (CLI then PowerShell) is common but still may suggest a slight Windows-first bias.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Bash/shell scripting examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for automation tasks.
- Clarify that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform (Windows, Linux, macOS) and provide sample Bash scripts for common migration scenarios.
- If PowerShell is included, consider also mentioning PowerShell Core (pwsh), which is cross-platform, and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users.
- Ensure that all automation examples (CLI, PowerShell, ARM, Terraform) are equally detailed and that none assume a Windows-only environment.
- Consider adding a short section or note for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences or confirming parity.
