Summary
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows examples for configuring custom metrics and the application health extension on Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets. However, there is a mild Windows bias: PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to Bash, and Windows-specific extension types (ApplicationHealthWindows) are shown first or exclusively in some code blocks. Additionally, PowerShell scripting is detailed alongside Bash, and Windows extension names/types are sometimes used as defaults in examples. REST API examples also use ApplicationHealthWindows as the type, even when ApplicationHealthLinux is equally valid.
Recommendations
- Ensure that both ApplicationHealthLinux and ApplicationHealthWindows extension types are shown in REST and JSON examples, or clarify when to use each.
- Alternate the order of Bash and PowerShell tabs so Linux is not always second.
- Where possible, provide explicit Linux and Windows variants in code samples, especially for extension type and settings.
- Clarify in text and tables that all functionality applies equally to Linux and Windows VMSS, and highlight any differences.
- In REST/JSON examples, use ApplicationHealthLinux as the default type when the example is not Windows-specific.
