Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias, primarily by providing only Windows PowerShell scripts and instructions for key management operations, without offering equivalent Linux/macOS CLI examples. The steps for copying disk encryption keys and updating target VM encryption settings rely exclusively on PowerShell, and the instructions explicitly mention opening the Windows PowerShell application. There is no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or cross-platform alternatives, and Windows tooling is presented first and exclusively for critical steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent examples using Azure CLI (az) commands for key copying and management, which work on Linux/macOS/Windows.
  • Include instructions for running scripts on Linux/macOS, such as using PowerShell Core (pwsh) or Bash alternatives.
  • Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic (e.g., portal, REST API) and which require Windows-specific tools.
  • If the PowerShell script is required, note that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform and provide installation guidance.
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS workflow examples for key vault operations and VM replication steps.
