Summary
The documentation provides a Windows-style AzCopy example ('AzCopy.exe copy "c:\somewhere\mydisk.vhd" "sas-URI" --blob-type PageBlob') but does not show a Linux/macOS equivalent. The AzCopy command is presented in Windows syntax and path format, and the explicit example uses a Windows path. There is no Linux/macOS AzCopy example (e.g., using './azcopy' or '/home/user/mydisk.vhd'). The rest of the CLI commands are cross-platform, but the AzCopy section is notably Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Add a Linux/macOS AzCopy example (e.g., './azcopy copy "/home/user/mydisk.vhd" "sas-URI" --blob-type PageBlob') alongside the Windows example.
  • Clarify that AzCopy is cross-platform and provide download/install instructions for Linux/macOS.
  • Mention that file paths and command syntax differ between Windows and Linux/macOS.
  • Consider showing both Windows and Linux/macOS examples side-by-side for AzCopy usage.
