Summary
The documentation page on Azure Blob snapshots does not provide any OS-specific command-line examples, but in the 'Next steps' section, it links only to a Windows-specific guide for backing up Azure unmanaged VM disks with incremental snapshots. There are no Linux or cross-platform equivalents mentioned or linked. Additionally, the mention of VHD files and VM disk detachment is presented in a way that implicitly assumes a Windows-centric context, as VHD is a format primarily associated with Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Add links to Linux-focused or cross-platform guides for managing blob snapshots and backing up VM disks, such as documentation for Azure Linux VMs or using AzCopy/CLI tools on Linux.
- When referencing VM disk formats, clarify support for both Windows (VHD) and Linux (VHD, VHDX, or other formats as appropriate), and provide examples relevant to both environments.
- In the 'Next steps' section, include parallel documentation for Linux users, such as 'Back up Azure unmanaged VM disks with incremental snapshots (Linux)' if available.
- Ensure that any best practices or operational guidance is not implicitly Windows-centric, and explicitly mention cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, AzCopy) with usage examples for both Windows and Linux.
