Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only Azure PowerShell command-line examples for enabling diagnostic logs, with no equivalent Azure CLI, Bash, or Linux-native instructions. The section on consuming logs recommends Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer, a GUI tool primarily available for Windows (though cross-platform, it is often associated with Windows environments), and does not mention Linux-native alternatives or command-line options. There are no Linux shell, Azure CLI, or cross-platform scripting examples, and no mention of how to perform these tasks on Linux systems.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for all diagnostic log configuration tasks, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
  • Include Bash or shell script examples for downloading and processing logs from Azure Storage, such as using az storage blob commands or tools like curl, jq, or Python scripts.
  • Mention and provide instructions for Linux-native tools (e.g., azcopy, Azure CLI, or Python SDK) for accessing and exporting logs, in addition to Microsoft Azure Storage Explorer.
  • Ensure that any downloadable tools or sample code are described as cross-platform, and provide explicit instructions for Linux users where applicable.
  • Consider reordering sections so that cross-platform or Linux-friendly approaches are presented before or alongside Windows/PowerShell-specific instructions.
