Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools and documentation before or instead of Linux equivalents. For example, the link to 'Availability set' points to a Windows VM tutorial, and the 'connect to VM' step links to Windows RDP instructions without mentioning or linking to Linux/SSH guidance. There are no explicit Linux command examples or references, and Linux-specific considerations are only mentioned in passing (e.g., longer failover times for Linux VMs) without actionable guidance.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel links and instructions for both Windows and Linux VMs, especially for connectivity (e.g., link to SSH connection documentation for Linux VMs).
  • When referencing features like 'Availability set', link to general or Linux-specific documentation as well, not just Windows VM tutorials.
  • Include explicit examples or notes for Linux VMs where relevant, such as SSH connectivity, Linux disk/driver considerations, or troubleshooting steps.
  • Ensure that any troubleshooting or validation steps cover both Windows (RDP) and Linux (SSH) scenarios equally.
  • Review all referenced documentation to ensure Linux parity and avoid defaulting to Windows-first patterns.
