Summary
The documentation page on deploying application packages to Azure Batch compute nodes exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Code examples for deploying and executing application packages are shown only for Windows environments (e.g., using 'cmd /c' and referencing Windows paths), with no equivalent Linux shell examples. The primary code samples use C#/.NET and reference Windows VM images first. Linux-specific instructions are limited to brief notes about environment variable formatting, without showing how to execute installed applications on Linux nodes.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific code examples for deploying and executing application packages, such as using bash or sh in the task command line.
  • Show how to reference and run installed applications on Linux nodes, including sample command lines and environment variable usage.
  • When presenting code samples, alternate or parallel Windows and Linux examples, or clearly label them as OS-specific.
  • Reference Linux VM images in pool creation examples, or provide both Windows and Linux pool configuration samples.
