Summary
The documentation provides detailed PowerShell examples for creating scale sets, including both simplified and extended parameter sets, which are specific to Windows environments. The CLI examples are present and generally cross-platform, but the PowerShell section is much more extensive, with advanced networking and load balancer configuration shown only in PowerShell. There is no mention of Linux shell scripting or equivalent advanced automation for Linux/macOS users. Additionally, the PowerShell tab is placed after CLI and Portal, but the depth of PowerShell coverage and the use of Windows-centric tools (e.g., Get-Credential, New-AzResourceGroup) indicate a bias toward Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent advanced examples using Bash shell scripting and Azure CLI for Linux/macOS users, covering networking and load balancer configuration.
  • Explicitly mention that PowerShell examples are for Windows and provide links or guidance for Linux/macOS automation.
  • Ensure that all advanced scenarios shown in PowerShell are also available in CLI or ARM template examples.
  • Consider adding a section on using Azure CLI in Bash scripts for automation, including credential management and resource configuration.
