Summary
The documentation provides clear, separate instructions for both Linux and Windows VM generalization. However, the Windows section includes more detailed prerequisites and troubleshooting steps, and Windows PowerShell/Command Prompt examples are shown before Linux equivalents in some sections. The Windows example for marking a VM as generalized uses PowerShell, while the Linux example uses Azure CLI, potentially causing friction for cross-platform users. Overall, Linux instructions are present and functional, but Windows receives slightly more attention and detail.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux and Windows sections have parity in detail and troubleshooting guidance.
- Provide Azure CLI examples for Windows VM generalization, not just PowerShell.
- Consider presenting Linux and Windows instructions in parallel or with equal prominence.
- Add troubleshooting tips for Linux deprovisioning similar to those given for Windows Sysprep.
