Summary:
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell usage. All code samples use PowerShell cmdlets, and there are no examples or guidance for using Linux-based tools or Bash scripting. The instructions for installing modules and running commands assume a PowerShell environment, and there is no mention of cross-platform alternatives or how to perform these tasks on Linux-based Hybrid Runbook Workers. The documentation also refers to Windows concepts (e.g., elevated PowerShell prompt) and does not provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Bash/CLI examples for connecting to Azure SQL Database using managed identities (e.g., using Azure CLI and sqlcmd).
- Document how to set up and use Hybrid Runbook Workers on Linux, including module installation and authentication steps.
- Include instructions for installing required modules or tools on Linux (e.g., using pip for Azure CLI, apt/yum for sqlcmd).
- Mention cross-platform compatibility of Azure Automation and clarify which steps or commands are OS-specific.
- Add a section or note explicitly addressing Linux users and linking to relevant resources for Linux-based automation.
