Summary
The documentation lists Azure PowerShell before Linux-native tools (Azure CLI), and provides a direct link to a Windows rescan function, but only a generic link for Linux. There are no explicit Linux shell/command examples, and the rescan process for Linux is less detailed than for Windows.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux shell command examples for rescanning disks (e.g., using 'echo 1 > /sys/class/block/<device>/device/rescan' or 'lsblk').
- List Azure CLI (cross-platform) before Azure PowerShell to avoid Windows-first impression.
- Include parity in detail for both Linux and Windows rescan steps, possibly with example commands and expected outputs.
- Clarify that both Azure CLI and PowerShell are cross-platform, but highlight native Linux tools for Linux VMs.
