Summary
The documentation consistently provides examples using Windows images (Win2016Datacenter) for VM creation in both Azure CLI and PowerShell sections, with no equivalent Linux VM examples. The only quickstart linked for portal deployment is for Windows VMs. There are no Linux-specific instructions or examples for deploying or managing Ultra Disks, despite the feature being available for Linux VMs. This creates friction for Linux users, who must adapt Windows-centric instructions to their own environments.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux VM creation examples (e.g., using Ubuntu or CentOS images) alongside Windows examples in CLI and PowerShell sections.
  • Provide links to Linux VM quickstart guides in the portal deployment section.
  • Explicitly mention any Linux-specific considerations for Ultra Disk usage, partitioning, and formatting.
  • Ensure all code snippets and walkthroughs are presented for both Windows and Linux scenarios, or clarify when instructions are OS-agnostic.
