Bias Analysis
Bias Types:

windows_first

missing_linux_example
Summary:
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell-based scripting examples (which are native to Windows), referencing the use of the Windows PowerShell application explicitly, and not offering equivalent instructions or scripts for Linux environments (such as Bash or Azure CLI). The only automation script provided is a PowerShell script, and there are no Linux-specific examples or guidance for users managing Azure VMs from Linux systems. Additionally, the documentation notes feature limitations for Linux (ADE without Microsoft Entra ID), but does not provide Linux-centric workflows or troubleshooting.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Bash or Azure CLI scripts for key management and replication tasks, alongside the PowerShell examples.
- Explicitly mention how Linux administrators can perform the same operations, including command-line steps that work on Linux/macOS.
- Where automation scripts are referenced (e.g., CopyKeys), offer a cross-platform version or alternative (such as an Azure CLI script or REST API example).
- Include screenshots or walkthroughs from Linux environments (e.g., Azure Cloud Shell in Bash mode) where relevant.
- Clarify any differences in workflow or requirements for Linux VMs, and ensure Linux parity in step-by-step instructions.
