missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation page, while stating support for both Windows and Linux Azure VMs, demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. PowerShell is the only command-line example provided (for identifying a VM's associated Key Vault), with no equivalent Linux/CLI example. In the 'Provide permissions' section, the PowerShell command is presented first and exclusively, with the CLI option only mentioned as a link, not as an inline example. Additionally, BitLocker (Windows) is described before dm-crypt (Linux) in the ADE section, and there are no Linux-specific command or troubleshooting examples.
Recommendations:
- For every PowerShell example, provide an equivalent Azure CLI (az) example, especially for tasks like identifying the Key Vault associated with a VM.
- When referencing OS-specific encryption technologies (BitLocker, dm-crypt), present them in parallel and with equal detail.
- Where possible, avoid presenting Windows tools or patterns first; alternate or present both together.
- Include Linux-specific troubleshooting tips or links, especially where agent installation or backup extension issues may differ.
- Ensure that all procedural steps (such as setting permissions or configuring backup) include both PowerShell and CLI/Linux-friendly instructions inline, not just as external links.
