Summary
The documentation page primarily uses Azure CLI and Bash examples, which are cross-platform, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. Specifically, instructions for listing ACLs on Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 mention using the Azure portal or PowerShell, with no mention of Linux-native tools or commands. References to configuring managed identities on Azure VMs and VMSS link to documentation for Windows VMs first, and PowerShell is implied as a tool for some steps. There are no explicit Linux shell or command examples for these scenarios, and Linux tools are not mentioned where relevant.
Recommendations
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned for listing ACLs or other tasks, also provide equivalent Bash/Azure CLI or Linux-native command examples.
  • When linking to managed identity configuration guides, include both Windows and Linux VM documentation links, or clarify that the Azure CLI examples work on both platforms.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands can be run from Bash on Linux, macOS, or Windows, and provide any platform-specific notes if needed.
  • If any step requires a tool or method only available on Windows (such as PowerShell), provide an alternative for Linux users or clarify cross-platform options.
