Summary
The documentation page lists both Windows and Linux-related endpoints, but there is a notable Windows bias: Windows NTP server ('time.windows.com') is mentioned specifically, and several endpoints reference Windows in their names (e.g., 'login.windows.net', 'servicebus.windows.net'). Windows-specific tools and services (such as Azure CLI installer download, Windows NTP, and diagnostic data from Windows) are referenced, while Linux equivalents (e.g., Linux NTP servers) are not mentioned or explained. The ordering of examples and notes often puts Windows endpoints first or exclusively, with Linux details only briefly referenced (e.g., 'Download Linux installation package' for packages.microsoft.com).
Recommendations
- Explicitly mention Linux NTP server options (e.g., 'ntp.ubuntu.com', 'pool.ntp.org') alongside 'time.windows.com', and clarify when Windows NTP is required versus when Linux NTP is supported.
- For endpoints and services that are cross-platform (e.g., Azure CLI), clarify installation steps or requirements for both Windows and Linux management machines.
- Add notes or examples for Linux-based management machines and appliance VMs, especially where Windows-specific endpoints or tools are referenced.
- Ensure Linux-related endpoints and tools are presented with equal prominence and detail as Windows ones.
- Where diagnostic data is referenced as 'from Windows', clarify if Linux appliance VMs also send diagnostic data and provide relevant endpoints.
