Summary
The documentation is intended for both Linux and Windows VMs, but consistently uses Windows-centric examples for VM creation and disk attachment (e.g., 'Win2016Datacenter' as the VM image in CLI and PowerShell commands). There are no explicit Linux VM image examples or Linux-specific guidance, despite the article stating applicability to Linux VMs. This creates friction for Linux users, who must infer the necessary changes for their environment.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel examples for Linux VM creation and disk attachment, using a Linux image (e.g., 'UbuntuLTS' or 'CentOS') in CLI and PowerShell commands.
  • Explicitly mention how to adapt commands for Linux VMs, including authentication options (e.g., SSH keys instead of passwords).
  • Add a note or section clarifying any OS-specific considerations for Ultra Disks, such as filesystem formatting or disk partitioning steps for Linux.
  • Ensure that all code snippets and instructions are equally applicable to both Linux and Windows, or provide separate tabs/examples for each.
