Summary
The documentation page exhibits moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (PowerShell) are mentioned as a primary method for VM creation from restored disks, with no equivalent CLI or Linux-native example provided. The OS disk swap example links only to Windows instructions. Linux-specific restore steps are relegated to a separate section, and the main restore workflow does not provide parity for Linux users. Windows terminology and tools appear first or exclusively in critical steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI and/or Bash examples for creating a VM from restored disks, alongside PowerShell instructions.
  • Include explicit instructions and links for swapping OS disks on Linux VMs, not just Windows.
  • Ensure that restore steps and workflows are presented in an OS-agnostic manner, or with parallel instructions for both Windows and Linux.
  • Mention Linux tools and patterns (e.g., cloud-init, Linux VM agent) where relevant.
  • Avoid presenting Windows tools or examples first unless there is a technical reason.
