Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for enabling Automatic Zone Balance, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is consistently presented alongside CLI and REST, and in some sections, PowerShell examples reference Windows-specific extension names (e.g., ApplicationHealthWindows). In the PowerShell example for adding the Application Health extension, only the Windows extension is shown, while the CLI example uses the Linux extension. The ordering of tabs sometimes puts PowerShell before CLI, and the PowerShell section assumes familiarity with Windows tooling. There are no explicit Linux/macOS gaps, but the documentation could be clearer about cross-platform parity and extension types.
Recommendations
  • Clarify in PowerShell examples how to use Application Health extensions for both Windows and Linux VMSS (e.g., show ApplicationHealthLinux as well as ApplicationHealthWindows).
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI is cross-platform and suitable for Linux/macOS users, and consider listing CLI before PowerShell in tab order.
  • Add a note explaining that PowerShell is available cross-platform, but Windows users may be more familiar with it.
  • Where extension types differ (ApplicationHealthWindows vs ApplicationHealthLinux), provide both examples or guidance for each OS.
  • Ensure all screenshots and portal steps are OS-agnostic or clarify if any are Windows-specific.
