Summary
The documentation page consistently links to Windows-specific Azure Instance Metadata Service (IMDS) documentation, both in error code explanations and in the 'Next steps' section. There are no references to Linux or cross-platform IMDS documentation, and no examples or mitigation steps tailored for Linux or macOS users. This may create friction for non-Windows users seeking platform-relevant guidance.
Recommendations
- Include links to both Windows and Linux/macOS versions of the Azure IMDS documentation where appropriate.
- Add examples or troubleshooting steps relevant to Linux (e.g., using curl or wget for IMDS requests) alongside any Windows/Powershell examples.
- Clarify that IMDS is available and supported on both Windows and Linux VMs, and provide parity in guidance.
- Where tabs or platform-specific instructions exist in linked documentation, mention them explicitly so users know to select their platform.
