Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for enabling Automatic Zone Balance on Virtual Machine Scale Sets, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is consistently presented alongside CLI and REST, and Windows-specific extension names (e.g., ApplicationHealthWindows) are used in PowerShell examples. Portal instructions are platform-neutral, but PowerShell is given equal prominence to CLI, and PowerShell examples use Windows-centric extension types, while CLI examples use Linux-centric types. The ordering of tabs sometimes puts PowerShell before CLI, and Windows tools are referenced throughout.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that Linux and macOS users are equally supported by providing Bash shell examples where relevant, especially for scripting tasks.
  • Clarify that Azure PowerShell can be used cross-platform, but highlight Azure CLI as the preferred tool for Linux/macOS users.
  • In PowerShell examples, explain the difference between ApplicationHealthWindows and ApplicationHealthLinux extensions, and provide both where applicable.
  • Consider ordering CLI examples before PowerShell, or explicitly stating that CLI is recommended for Linux/macOS users.
  • Add a note about cross-platform compatibility for Azure CLI and PowerShell, and link to installation guides for Linux/macOS.
