Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell cmdlets as the primary method for error reporting and troubleshooting, mentioning SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio, a Windows-only tool) for database checks, and lacking Linux/macOS-specific guidance or examples. No alternatives such as Azure CLI, cross-platform database tools, or shell scripting are provided for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Include troubleshooting steps using Azure CLI, which is cross-platform, alongside or instead of PowerShell.
  • Mention and provide examples with cross-platform database tools (e.g., Azure Data Studio, sqlcmd) for checking SQL Database/Managed Instance status.
  • Explicitly state which steps/tools are Windows-only and offer Linux/macOS alternatives.
  • Add Linux/macOS-specific error reporting and troubleshooting examples, especially for custom setup script testing.
  • Reorder examples so that cross-platform or OS-neutral tools are presented before Windows-specific ones.
