Summary
The documentation provides general guidance for restoring Azure VMs using the portal, but there is a notable Windows bias in example links, terminology, and guidance. Windows/PowerShell examples are referenced before or instead of Linux equivalents, and links to Windows-specific documentation are more prevalent. Linux-specific restore scenarios, troubleshooting, and automation are underrepresented, and PowerShell is often suggested as the automation method without mentioning Azure CLI or Bash alternatives.
Recommendations
- Include explicit Linux VM restore examples and links (e.g., how to attach restored disks to Linux VMs, how to reset SSH keys/passwords using Linux tools).
- When referencing automation, provide Azure CLI and Bash examples alongside PowerShell, especially in sections like 'Restore disks', 'Restore VMs with special configurations', and 'Post-restore steps'.
- Balance links to Windows and Linux documentation (e.g., when linking to disk attachment, availability sets, and troubleshooting guides).
- Clarify when guidance applies equally to both Windows and Linux, and call out Linux-specific considerations (e.g., cloud-init password reset, SSH key usage, VM agent installation on Linux).
- Add troubleshooting steps for common Linux restore issues (e.g., boot problems, agent installation, SSH access).
