Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for deploying ZRS managed disks. However, PowerShell examples are heavily focused on Windows VM creation and use Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., Windows image references, Windows admin credentials, ConvertTo-SecureString). PowerShell sections consistently use Windows images and parameters, while Azure CLI examples use Ubuntu images. Resource Manager Template examples are also presented with PowerShell commands and Windows-centric parameters. The PowerShell and template sections are Windows-first and lack parity for Linux VM creation, making it harder for Linux users to follow equivalent workflows using PowerShell or ARM templates.
Recommendations
  • Add PowerShell examples for deploying Linux VMs with ZRS disks, using Linux image references and Linux admin credential patterns.
  • Update Resource Manager Template sections to include Linux VM deployment examples, or clarify how to adapt templates for Linux VMs.
  • Ensure that PowerShell and ARM template instructions are not exclusively Windows-focused, and provide guidance for Linux scenarios.
  • Where possible, use generic admin credential patterns or explain differences for Linux and Windows VM creation.
