Summary
The documentation provides both Linux (Bash/Python) and Windows (PowerShell) examples for configuring the application health extension response and for installing/querying the extension. However, there are several instances of Windows bias: PowerShell examples are given equal or greater prominence than Bash, and Windows-specific extension types (ApplicationHealthWindows) are shown before or alongside Linux types. The PowerShell examples are more verbose and detailed, and Windows extension types are sometimes used as the default in code samples, even when Linux is equally supported. The documentation does not omit Linux examples, but Windows tools and patterns are often presented first or with more detail.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux and Windows examples are presented with equal prominence and detail. For example, alternate the order of Bash and PowerShell tabs, or present Linux examples first in some sections.
- Use neutral extension type placeholders (e.g., <ApplicationHealthLinux or ApplicationHealthWindows>) consistently, and clarify when to use each based on the OS.
- Expand Linux/Bash examples to match the depth and clarity of PowerShell examples, including troubleshooting and advanced scenarios.
- Explicitly state that all features and steps apply equally to both Linux and Windows VMSS, unless a step is OS-specific.
- Where possible, provide cross-platform scripts or highlight platform-agnostic approaches (e.g., using REST API or Azure CLI).
