Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using Windows compute nodes (Windows Server 2019) in the pool creation steps and providing only Windows command-line examples (cmd, timeout). There is no mention of Linux-based pools or examples of Linux shell commands, and the workflow assumes Windows environments throughout.
Recommendations:
- Include parallel instructions for creating a pool of Linux compute nodes, specifying a common Linux VM image (e.g., Ubuntu LTS).
- Provide Linux shell command examples (e.g., using bash and sleep) alongside Windows cmd examples when creating tasks.
- Explicitly mention that Azure Batch supports both Windows and Linux pools, and guide users on how to select the appropriate OS for their workloads.
- Add screenshots and walkthroughs for Linux-based pools and tasks to ensure visual parity.
- Consider a table or toggle to show both Windows and Linux steps side-by-side for each relevant section.
