Summary
The documentation provides detailed PowerShell examples for checking and initiating maintenance on Virtual Machine Scale Sets, with CLI equivalents included. However, PowerShell is featured first and in more detail, and there are no explicit Bash or Linux shell script examples. References to 'scheduled events' link to Windows-specific documentation, and there is no mention of Linux-specific guidance or parity for those features.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Bash or shell script examples for common Linux environments, especially for querying maintenance status and initiating maintenance using the Azure CLI.
- When referencing 'scheduled events', include or link to Linux/macOS documentation (e.g., scheduled events for Linux VMs) alongside or before Windows links.
- Present CLI examples before PowerShell, or at least in parallel, to avoid the impression that PowerShell is the primary or preferred method.
- Clarify that all CLI commands work cross-platform (Windows, Linux, macOS), and provide any Linux/macOS-specific notes if needed.
