Summary
The documentation relies exclusively on PowerShell cmdlets (e.g., Update-AzureRmVM) and does not provide equivalent examples for Linux/macOS users (such as Azure CLI or REST API usage). The instructions and code samples are tailored to Windows environments, with no mention of Linux shell commands or cross-platform alternatives. This creates friction for users who do not use Windows or PowerShell.
Recommendations
  • Include Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for all automation steps, especially for VM tagging.
  • Add notes or sections clarifying how Linux/macOS users can perform equivalent actions using Bash, Azure CLI, or REST APIs.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements for the runbook code and provide guidance for adapting scripts to non-Windows environments.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform tools and commands in examples, or provide both PowerShell and Bash/CLI versions.
