Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for creating VMs from generalized images, but PowerShell examples are heavily Windows-centric, with explicit use of Windows-specific parameters (e.g., Set-AzVMOperatingSystem -Windows) and RDP-related network security rules. In several PowerShell code blocks, only Windows VM creation is shown, with no Linux equivalent. Additionally, in PowerShell sections, Windows configuration is presented first and exclusively, while CLI examples are more Linux-focused. REST and Portal instructions do cover both OS types, but PowerShell users on Linux/macOS are left without clear guidance.
Recommendations
- Add PowerShell examples for creating Linux VMs, using Set-AzVMOperatingSystem -Linux and relevant SSH configuration.
- In PowerShell sections, provide both Windows and Linux VM creation code blocks, or clarify how to adapt the examples for Linux.
- When showing network security rules, include SSH (port 22) examples alongside RDP (port 3389) for Linux scenarios.
- Explicitly note PowerShell cross-platform support and any differences for Linux/macOS users.
- Ensure parity in example coverage and ordering between Windows and Linux across all tooling sections.
