Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. PowerShell cmdlets are listed as the first command-line tool, and the use of Remote Desktop (RDP) for accessing compute nodes is mentioned without reference to SSH or Linux alternatives. While the Azure CLI is described as cross-platform and Batch Explorer is available for all OSes, the prominence of PowerShell and RDP, both Windows-centric tools, suggests a preference for Windows workflows. There are no explicit Linux shell or Bash examples, and Linux-native troubleshooting or access patterns are not highlighted.
Recommendations
  • List Azure CLI before PowerShell in the command-line tools section to emphasize cross-platform parity.
  • Mention SSH as an alternative to RDP for accessing compute nodes, especially for Linux-based pools.
  • Include examples or references to Linux shell (Bash) usage where appropriate, such as troubleshooting or file access.
  • Ensure that all tooling and workflow descriptions explicitly note Linux compatibility or provide Linux-specific guidance where workflows differ.
  • Consider adding a note or section on best practices for Linux-based Batch pools, including access, debugging, and environment setup.
