Summary
The documentation provides step-by-step instructions for deploying Premium SSD v2 disks with VMs in an availability set using Azure CLI, PowerShell, and the Azure Portal. However, the VM creation examples in both CLI and PowerShell use Windows images (e.g., Win2016Datacenter), and there are no explicit Linux VM examples or references. PowerShell instructions are given equal prominence to CLI, but PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool. There is no mention of Linux-specific considerations, nor are there examples for Linux VM images or SSH credential handling. The documentation implicitly prioritizes Windows by example and tooling, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit Linux VM creation examples in both Azure CLI and PowerShell sections (e.g., use UbuntuLTS or CentOS images).
  • Add notes or examples for SSH credential setup for Linux VMs.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users where relevant.
  • Mention Linux-specific considerations (e.g., disk formatting, mounting) if applicable.
  • Balance the order and prominence of Windows and Linux examples to avoid implicit prioritization.
