Summary
The documentation is focused on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) in Azure, but there is notable Windows bias in certain areas. The most prominent example is in the section 'Create and attach an Azure shared disk with PowerShell', where only PowerShell scripts are provided for disk creation and attachment, with Azure CLI or portal methods mentioned only as references. Additionally, references to Windows maintenance documentation appear before Linux equivalents in some places, and the services metadata includes 'virtual-machines-windows' despite the Linux focus. These patterns may create friction for Linux/macOS users who do not use PowerShell.
Recommendations
  • Provide full Azure CLI examples for creating and attaching Azure shared disks, alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Ensure Linux tools and patterns are presented first or equally when both Windows and Linux options exist.
  • Remove or deprioritize references to Windows documentation unless directly relevant.
  • Clarify when PowerShell is required and offer alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
  • Review metadata and service tags to ensure they accurately reflect the Linux focus.
