Summary
The documentation provides disaster recovery guidance for Azure Automation that applies to both Linux and Windows VMs. However, all migration scripts and runbook examples are exclusively PowerShell-based, with no mention of Bash, Python, or CLI alternatives. The only automation asset migration tools referenced are PowerShell scripts and workflows, and all step-by-step instructions assume use of PowerShell. There are no Linux-native scripting examples or guidance for users who prefer Bash or Python, which creates friction for Linux-focused users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent migration scripts or runbooks using Azure CLI, Bash, or Python for users who do not use PowerShell.
  • Explicitly mention if PowerShell is the only supported method for asset migration, and provide guidance for Linux users on how to install and use PowerShell Core if necessary.
  • Add examples or references for Linux/macOS users, such as using PowerShell Core on Linux, or alternative approaches using REST API or Azure CLI.
  • Clarify in the prerequisites that PowerShell is required, and link to instructions for installing PowerShell on Linux/macOS if no alternatives exist.
