Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell-based instructions and commands for collecting VM guest logs, without offering equivalent Linux shell or cross-platform alternatives. The log collection process relies on PowerShell cmdlets, and there are no examples or guidance for users who may be managing the device from a Linux or macOS environment. While log file locations for both Linux and Windows VMs are mentioned, the actual collection workflow is Windows-centric.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux shell (bash) commands or scripts for collecting VM guest logs, or clarify if the process is only supported via PowerShell.
- Mention and document any cross-platform tools (such as Azure CLI or REST API) that can be used for log collection, if available.
- If PowerShell is required, specify whether PowerShell Core (which is cross-platform) can be used on Linux/macOS, and provide installation or usage instructions.
- Ensure that examples and instructions are presented for both Windows and Linux environments, or explicitly state platform limitations.
