Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. Troubleshooting steps for VHD formatting and conversion reference Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Hyper-V cmdlets) exclusively, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives. Example links and instructions focus on Windows workflows, and the 'Next steps' section lists Azure PowerShell (Windows-centric) before any mention of cross-platform or Linux-native options. There are no Linux/macOS equivalent commands or guidance for VHD creation, conversion, or inspection.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/macOS-compatible instructions for VHD creation and conversion, such as using qemu-img or other open-source tools.
  • Provide example commands for inspecting VHD types on Linux/macOS.
  • Add parity in troubleshooting steps for users on non-Windows platforms.
  • Reference cross-platform Azure CLI workflows where possible, and clarify which steps are Windows-only.
  • Reorder examples so that cross-platform or Linux options are presented alongside or before Windows-specific ones.
