Summary
The documentation covers Ultra Disks for both Linux and Windows VMs, but consistently uses Windows VM images (Win2016Datacenter) in all CLI and PowerShell examples. No examples are provided for deploying Ultra Disks with Linux VM images, nor are Linux-specific post-deployment instructions (such as partitioning/formatting disks on Linux) included. Windows VM creation is referenced first in portal instructions, and all code samples default to Windows VM images, creating friction for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel examples using Linux VM images (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) for Azure CLI and PowerShell commands.
  • In portal instructions, reference both Windows and Linux VM creation quickstarts equally, or provide links to Linux VM creation guides.
  • Include post-deployment steps for partitioning and formatting Ultra Disks on Linux (e.g., using fdisk, mkfs, etc.), alongside Windows instructions.
  • Explicitly state that Ultra Disks are supported for both Linux and Windows VMs, and clarify any OS-specific requirements or limitations.
  • Where variables are set (e.g., --image), show both Windows and Linux values, or note how to select the appropriate image for your OS.
