Summary
The documentation provides step-by-step instructions for creating a lab and adding a VM in Azure DevTest Labs, but when guiding users to add a VM, it exclusively uses 'Windows Server 2019 Datacenter' as the example base image. There are no examples or mentions of Linux VM images, nor are there instructions or screenshots showing Linux-specific configuration options. This creates a subtle bias toward Windows, potentially leading Linux users to believe that only Windows VMs are supported or recommended.
Recommendations
- Include explicit examples and screenshots for creating a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) alongside the Windows example.
- Mention that both Windows and Linux images are supported and highlight any Linux-specific configuration options (e.g., SSH key setup instead of password).
- Add notes or tips for Linux users regarding best practices for VM configuration, such as using SSH keys and selecting appropriate artifacts.
- Ensure that references to VM base images do not default to Windows unless Windows is required for the scenario.
