Summary
The documentation page is focused on time synchronization for Linux VMs in Azure and provides comprehensive Linux-specific guidance and examples. However, the introduction and overview sections discuss Windows Server 2016 time sync improvements and link to Windows documentation before fully addressing Linux-specific mechanisms. All configuration, troubleshooting, and example commands are Linux-centric, with only a single PowerShell snippet shown for base64 encoding cloud-init data (which is relevant for Azure ARM template usage, not time sync itself). No Linux examples are missing, and no Windows tools are recommended for Linux VM management.
Recommendations
- Move or minimize Windows Server 2016 time sync discussion to a background or context section, making it clear that the rest of the page is Linux-focused.
- Add a brief note explaining why Windows time sync improvements are relevant to Linux VM users (e.g., because Azure hosts run Windows Server and this affects host time accuracy).
- Consider providing a Linux shell command alternative for base64 encoding cloud-init data, since the PowerShell example may not be directly usable by Linux/macOS users.
- Ensure that all actionable steps and examples remain Linux-centric and that any Windows references are clearly contextual/background.
