Summary
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows guidance, but PowerShell examples are heavily focused on Windows VM creation, with Windows-specific parameters (e.g., Set-AzVMOperatingSystem -Windows) and password authentication. Windows VM creation steps are shown first in PowerShell sections, and some network security group rules reference RDP (port 3389) before SSH (port 22). Linux examples are present (especially in CLI and REST), but Windows patterns and tools are often mentioned or demonstrated before Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • In PowerShell examples, provide explicit Linux VM creation steps (e.g., Set-AzVMOperatingSystem -Linux) alongside Windows examples, or clarify how to adapt for Linux.
  • When showing network security group rules, include SSH (port 22) examples before or alongside RDP (port 3389), and clarify Linux/Windows differences.
  • Ensure parity in authentication methods: demonstrate SSH key usage in PowerShell for Linux VMs, not just password-based authentication.
  • Where possible, alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples, or clearly label them to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Add notes or links to Linux-specific guidance in sections where Windows patterns dominate.
