Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for verifying disk encryption status on Linux VMs, but the PowerShell section is presented before the Azure CLI section and contains more detailed, step-by-step examples. This may create friction for Linux users, as PowerShell is not the native or default scripting environment for Linux, and the CLI section, while present, is less comprehensive in some areas. The portal instructions are platform-neutral, and the OS-level checks use Linux-native tools, but the prominence and detail of PowerShell examples suggest a Windows bias.
Recommendations
- Present Azure CLI examples before PowerShell examples, as Azure CLI is more commonly used on Linux.
- Ensure Azure CLI examples are as detailed and comprehensive as PowerShell examples, covering all scenarios (single pass, dual pass, unattached disks, managed/unmanaged disks).
- Explicitly note that PowerShell examples are for users who have PowerShell Core installed on Linux, but Azure CLI is recommended for Linux environments.
- Consider adding Bash script examples for common tasks, where appropriate.
- Review and balance the depth of coverage between PowerShell and CLI sections.
