Summary:
The documentation exclusively describes how to configure disk encryption using the Azure Portal UI, with terminology and navigation patterns that are most familiar to Windows users. There are no examples or instructions for performing these tasks using command-line tools such as Azure CLI, PowerShell, or Bash scripts, nor is there any mention of Linux-specific workflows or considerations. This may disadvantage Linux users or those who prefer automation and cross-platform scripting.
Recommendations:
- Add step-by-step instructions for configuring disk encryption using Azure CLI, which is cross-platform and widely used by both Windows and Linux users.
- Include PowerShell examples for users who prefer scripting, but ensure parity by providing equivalent Bash/Azure CLI commands.
- Mention and link to relevant documentation for automating these tasks on Linux systems, such as using ARM templates or REST APIs.
- Clarify that the Azure Portal UI is platform-agnostic, but explicitly state that all steps can be performed from any OS with a supported browser.
- Provide troubleshooting or validation steps that can be performed from both Windows and Linux VMs (e.g., using OS-native commands to check disk encryption status).
