Summary
The documentation, while focused on Linux VMs, relies heavily on PowerShell-based workflows and examples for migration, controller checks, and script execution. Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, Azure CLI in PowerShell syntax) are used for critical steps, and PowerShell instructions are presented before any Linux-native alternatives. There is minimal guidance for performing these tasks using native Linux tools or shell commands, creating friction for Linux/macOS users who may not use PowerShell.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux shell (bash) commands for all PowerShell examples, especially for checking VM controller types and running migration scripts.
  • Offer instructions for using Azure CLI in bash (native Linux syntax), not just PowerShell.
  • Include guidance for downloading and running migration scripts directly from a Linux terminal, without requiring PowerShell.
  • Clarify whether the migration script can be run in Azure Cloud Shell (bash) or on a local Linux system, and provide steps for both.
  • Move Linux-native instructions and examples before PowerShell/Windows-centric ones, or present them side-by-side.
  • Explicitly state any prerequisites or limitations for Linux/macOS users regarding the migration process.
