Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Hyper-V (a Windows virtualization tool) for VHD creation and management, providing links to Windows-specific instructions, and using Hyper-V Manager for VM operations. There are no examples or guidance for equivalent Linux tools (such as KVM, qemu-img, or VirtualBox) for creating or managing VHDs, nor are Linux workflows mentioned for tasks like shutting down the VM or converting disk formats. Windows/Hyper-V tools and patterns are mentioned first and exclusively, which may create friction for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Add instructions and examples for creating and managing VHDs using Linux-native tools (e.g., KVM, qemu-img, VirtualBox).
- Provide Linux command-line equivalents for VM operations such as shutdown, disk conversion, and management.
- Include links to Linux-specific documentation for virtualization and VHD creation.
- Present both Windows and Linux workflows in parallel, or prioritize Linux examples given the target audience (Oracle Linux on Azure).
